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.
IMO only, I don't think it happens, but if it does it will be when the next pressure point arrives and that is likely within 6 hours or so of the deadline (when the contenders and those within distance see/hear rumors of direct opponents getting stronger) and reactions start occurring.

So much pressure on some of the war rooms at that point. Would be an absolute blast to experience.
