Red Wings are in a similar situation with Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider, but I believe the Red Wings have more cap to work with. But that, too, would be one hell of a swindle.

I think the problem is the draft picks involved. Each would cost a 1st +, and teams with cap are low in the standings and don't want to lose their first round pick.
