How? Most teams total lack of cap space due to the non-rising cap the last few years.

No one wants to give up cheap players and/or prospects/draft picks for rentals they know they likely can't extend.

You can trade cap for cap type deals, but that's likely UFA's to be for UFA's to be, which helps no one.

Or you can trade Taylor Hall for nothing.

Calgary did well to trade Toffoli for a player with two years control and a useful draft pick.
