I think that type of deal is a fair return, and works within Dallas' cap constraints as they're dumping more cap than taking on.

That is a terrible return.
- You are giving up an asset that should be worth at least 1st and a good prospect without a favourable market with lots of teams interested
- Then you are adding retention and getting no value back on it
- And then you are taking a cap dump for nothing?
If you are willing to blow the trade that badly then send him to literally any other team so that you are not wasting a retention slot AND taking back a cap dump contract for no benefit.
The only reason to send Andersson to the Stars is because they are willing to pay more than the other teams in order to win now.
