They seem to forget that Toronto wasn't willing to budge from a 3rd round pick when they signed Hyman, which would have lowered his cap hit around 700k. That was for a player Toronto knew they were losing and still didn't budge on their demand to help Edmonton lower the cap hit.
A team eating a great deal more than 700k will cost a team dearly. No team is going out of their way to help other teams against the cap. Any GM that does, will probably not be a GM much longer.
