I think in the cap NHL, post-COVID, term for aging players makes them much tougher to move. A veteran player with no term left will have way more value than a veteran player with term.
Purely from a trade market point of view, how many teams are going to be willing to add a 4.5M player for 2 more years next TDL v. the number of teams that could add Gio on an expiring deal. I strongly suspect the market for the latter is far greater.
