If a team really needs or wants something, they make it work.

Yeah, but there is always a cost in the form of draft picks or buy outs or trading a valuable player for less than they are worth.
It cost Toronto a 1st round pick to move 1 season of Marleau just last off season.
The Turris buyout is going to cost Nashville 2 million of cap space for the next 8 season.
We have heard rumors that Vegas will look at moving Schmidt, Marhessault, and Stastny if they can't find a taker for Fleury. They offered up a 2nd round pick for taking on his contract and even then no team bit.
