Feel free to find any trade in the last 6 months where the team taking on salary dollars gave up anything significant in return in terms of young players or picks.
The Erik Karlsson trade saw the Sharks take on more salary cap hit in return for this plus pay a significant chunk of salary to get a first round pick.
These great deals are not out there right now. But I don't think you'll ever understand that.
It's like saying the guy who sold his house in March of 2022 because he got fired from his job for being incompetent is brilliant because he sold at the top of the market, and the guy who sold his house last week because he was diagnosed with a terminal cancer is an idiot because he didn't sell his house for top dollar.
