You can definitely get value back for Burns, particularly if retention is involved. Unfortunately for the Sharks, I don’t think retaining on Burns would be the best idea, since many of the upcoming contracts would be due in 1-2 years, and if Burns gets moved with retention, they are stuck with that for 3 years.
Vlasic would probably be better served as a buyout than a dump, and while the Sharks would be stuck with the penalty for 8 years, I think they would rather do that than give up at least a first. EK is just unmovable at this point.
