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.

Is this part sarcasm? Because I agree with the premise, but if you think this is "doing well", then that's an extraordinarily low standard.
