In effect the Canes trade Aho for Player A and Prospect B in that hypothetical scenario and perhaps getting more value than just a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.

This is an interesting possibility. Right now, the compensation for Carolina is a bit of a joke. The Islanders received more when they traded Hamonic.
You could see Carolina being enticed here if the cash flow considerations of the deal offered give them pause.
