Pageau got a 1st+2nd+3rd a few years ago.

The Jets have traded 1sts+ for both Stastny and Hayes.

But of course you can't bank on teams being that stupid.


Then you can go back to 2012 for a funny one:

BUF gets a 1st (pick 21 that becomes Jankowski)

NAS gets Paul Gaustad and a 4th (pick 99 that becomes Saros).

So the most laughable overpayment in the history of the TDL (Gaustad career highs = 12 goals and 36 points) actually turned out brilliantly for NAS.
