It makes total sense because two full seasons of paying part of a useful players salary should be worth a lot.
To a casual fan it's not their money, they want a trade. But if you're paying like 4 million of your future budget to help a competitor be better, God damed right you should get a lot for it. It's not like both parties expect Markstrom to turn into Jack Campbell next week. They expect him to keep playing at a high level.
Seems like a lot here think this will happen. Hence the panic to trade Markstrom today.
