I want more trades too but I'm glad they aren't trading just for the hell of it. Set a value and stick to it if it isn't a UFA.
Agreed - it's a slippery slope once you reduce your ask, teams think they can start bossing you around.

Reminds me of when Burke held on to UFA Cammalleri at the TDL years ago because teams wouldn't meet his ask. It hurt not to recoup the pick in the short-term, but setting that precedent is important in future dealings (especially for a new GM like Conny, I would imagine).
