I mean TJ Brodie is a much better player and all he could get was $5 million as a UFA.
Ryan Murray had 14 points in 48 games last season, is younger, bigger than Schmidt, has a career high of 29 points and is a UFA. Equally good skater.
Why would any team trade for Schmidt when you can just sign Murray for maybe half that price?

I don't know but I'm glad some teams still think highly of him lol
