Well domi was hurt, and even if he doesnt come back to play center, he showed he can. Some of those centers were traded a long long time, as I mentioned, they are not traded often. O'Reilly from buffalo to STL was a horrible trade, not sure if that was a great example.
Domi has been juggled between center and wing this whole year. He's struggled at center and has performed better on the wing. All those trades happened within the last 6 years. If you want to count that as a long long time.

From COL to Buf, they gave up a lot besides the pick, hence why it wasnt a top 10. You have rentals on there, which the value is waaay different on expiring contracts.
That's the whole point. All of the trade packages for those players included everything but a top 10 pick. Domi isn't getting a top 10 pick. He's struggled this year and is a RFA looking for a new contract. If he is traded, he'll get a package of conditonal picks / prospects / top 4D.

So youre just throwing **** at the wall, most of it, isnt even comparable.
Both ROR & Domi were in similar situations. Both players that need new contracts that would be traded before the draft, except ROR was exclusively playing center at the time + younger.
