I can't imagine anyone is trading for him for 2 years, since he hasn't really established himself as a top dman. Or, if traded, for a much less return.
I doubt he's traded until next year now, due to the risk of him walking to UFA.
He'll have all the leverage after next year regarding whether he'll sign an extension or not.
