This gets repeated but it's also such an eyeroller
This is the trade deadline, not free agency. If a team trades a player here, they're coming here to play, even if it's just the remainder of the season. Kadri was an outlier, that's not going to be the norm.
Players don't orchestrate trades, their GMs do.
Even a lot of players with NTCs aren't going to ultimately deny the wishes of their team if they've decided they want to part ways. Makes the relationship awkward.
