Weibe is a 7th round pick, must have needed to drop a contract because that’s a very odd throw in.

So essentially Rasmus for a very late 1st.
As mentioned you're ignoring the 2nd rounder.


But the most logical answer is that Boston wouldn't proceed without an extension negotiated, whereas Vegas is OK to risk the trade without one in place knowing they'll either pull a Hanifin and extend him shortly anyways, or else just eat the trade cost of the rental.
