I am inclined to believe Cammalleri had little to no value to anyone else in the NHL.
The latter, plus the fact that he has a huge price tag and not a lot of players have cap room.

My bet is still, there was a deal with Anahaim that fell through for some reason. Contenders don't trade their top line winger for nothing, and not recoup that.

Not sure what happened though
