not a good example at all. Also the Flames could have traded Tkachuk for Eichel but he wouldn't sign there either. Flames had the assets for Chychrun, if they wanted to give up a 2023 first...likely wouldn't have gone over well.

Players often re-sign with a team once they trade for them.
Weegar and Huberdeau both re-sgned with us, you would think they wouldn't want to be here or test free agency. Worked out for them they sdidn't with the years they had but both contract were long term and reasonable at the time they signed.
Sure, some players might not want to come here but players are often available. Cap space and assets and you can be in on it. What we have now is short of elite and this team is one of the least successful teams in the salary cap era. But you are ok with keep doing the same old thing I guess.
I'd like to once have a good young star studded team full of potential for the first time since I was 10 and we were stacked in the 80s
