1sts are seldom being moved anymore for rentals. Those players rarely make the difference needed to win a cup and the 1st has become one of the most valuable trading assets in hockey. I think teams are wising up to rental player market. They aren't worth the hype.
Than there is the fact that EDMs pick as of right now is a lottery pick. If they make this deal it would only happen if they went 40-10 the rest of the way and are in a playoff position at the TDL. Not 3rd worst in the league that is for sure.
