Kane qualifies but there were lots of big names in that trade and not too sure either side came out way ahead. Duchene is a good example though - mainly caused the Sens crapped out badly once they made the trade.
Drouin wanted out. I think he qualifies.

Kane trade was a win for the Jets. Getting Myers is a win. And Kane was traded in spite of his talent. He was a cancer in the room, very well documented.
