You dont, you're not going to.
But your surely attempting to do more than just sitting there hoping you can win something by keeping a mediocre core and adding to it with depth plugs.

Here's some trades for you:

Preds traded away prime Erat for Filip Forsberg, getting younger and better just 2 years later.

Stars traded away Loui Eriksson in his prime for Seguin

Buffalo traded away a prime O'Reilly for a 1st, Tage Thompson and more

Flyers traded away prime Richards & Carter for Simmonds, Schenn and Voracek who all turned into great NHL forwards.

Islanders traded Griffin Reinhart to Edmonton for what now is Barzal

Rangers traded Brassard for a younger less established Zibanajad
Is there a single example here where a team was in rebuild mode? These are all just hockey trades. And I am sorry, but calling Martin 'never broke 60 points in a season' Erat a PreMiUm AssEt is just comical. You have dug in way too far man. Just let it go.
