If you're trading 1sts for Tobi Rieder or Duncan Keith, then yeah, you're gonna have a hard time. But there's also ways to do it where you can come out ahead.
While I don't agree with your humble opion of your D you're right on trading. You can move value throughout your system pretty easily in this league. The reality is some gms are just a lot better at it then others, over time. That's life though, isn't it.
