Yup, fully aware of that. That is why I mentioned trade conditions.
If the Flames trade Andersson to the Sharks while he only wants to sign with VGK then the Flames would just need to build in a condition to the trade that ups our return if Andersson is re-traded within the conference or something.
I know they are not allowed to have conditions around the player re-signing anymore but I am not sure if it is possible to bake in a condition around a player being traded.
Or maybe you put in a condition around playoff games. Get a conditional 2nd round pick, unless Andersson plays 1 playoff game (on any team), then it becomes a 1st. That way if the Sharks flip Andersson to Vegas and he plays in the playoffs then we end up with their 1st.
