This. The value for Nelson is the number of bidders. Karri is a better player but he comes with term and he can stop any trade. There is not open market bidding for his services. He did that already during free agency.
The Avs are not making the same offer to Calgary because they don’t have to compete with five other teams.
Every year people get upset about trade offers and say that Calgary should have received that deal. Calgary has very little leverage to barter a better deal. It remains with Kadri and any team.
