It looks like the first one was in 2020 when Lehner was traded to Vegas from Chicago and Toronto retained a bit of cap hit for a 5th round pick.
There were 3 such trades in 2021, Savard, Foligno, and Janmark. Last year, there was only 1, Domi.
So far this season, there have been 2, O'Reilly and Orlov.
