I don't see Frolik as being a very valuable piece to a rebuilding club - he has a decent sized cap hit at $4.3MM/Year and has been a healthy scratch this year. That much alone makes me think that he isn't going to be an attractive piece to a team that is a few years away from winning.
Look at a player like Tatar, he was able to get a first round pick and at the time he had 28 points in 62 games as an offensive winger. The trade deadline makes teams who think that they have a chance at winning make bad long term trades.
