Enjoy your freedom, you wintertimer.
Cogliano immediately came to mind when I read the title. I mean, it's like you wrote this specifically for him.
Value of: LOW TRADE VALUE, HIGH TEAM VALUE PLAYERS

Yeah whoops that we did not offer him a contract but truthfully it would have meant no Boeser.

Colorado: JT Compher.
I mean I'm sure he has solid trade value, but his points so far don't really do him justice for how good he is. Incredibly smart, fastest player on the team after Mackinnon, great in the defensive zone, great on the PK, great shot. I'm sure Compher has the trade value equal to what he is right now as a player but the thing with Compher is that he has no ceiling. There are no holes in his game. Because of that his trade value isn't worth what he could potentially become for Colorado.

For Tampa
Ryan Callahan: contract makes him damn near untradeable but his impacts on the fourth line have been tremendous this season
Yanni Gourde: a major part of Tampa's top-9. If he keeps up the scoring his league wide value will be higher.
Jake Dotchin: a cheap, young, solid dman
I would include Brayden Point but his value league wide has got to be improving with how he has played this season.

Most third line centers. They are often crucial for secondary scoring, shutting the other team's top guys down, or even both. As for the trade value part, it is quite simple. If you trade a third line center, you'll often need to use a fourth line center to cover the assignments of the guy you just traded, which rarely ends up being a success. Then again, you don't usually get much for a bottom six player, even if it is a center.
I'm pretty sure Gm's would pay a lot to get him. He seems to have a great reputation.
I mean, the guy is hovering 40 points every year, brings it in the playoffs (no decrease in production, pro rata to 40 pts), is great on the PK and gives his everything on each night.
As for the other two, I agree.

Worst trade of the summer easily. Not sure what your GM was thinking there but I'm glad he did.

Jesper Fast wins this thread.
I doubt people would even move a 2nd for him but he's a monster for the Rangers
Great defense, offensive ability at time, sick shot, works well on any line, Fast (like his name) a true Swiss (Swedish) Army knife player. It would take a high 2nd/low first for me to move him. He's played at a 50 point pace this year. Deserves more recognition

I agree with Hainsey for sure, but not with JVR. I have no doubt if the Leafs decided to move JVR they'd get a hefty return for him. It's just on this site that his value has taken a hit because of the constant trade proposals. In the real world 30 goal scorers return pretty much exactly what you'd expect them to......a lot.

JVR.
Consistent 60pt producer who wouldn't even return a late 1st at the trade deadline (according to HFboards)

For the Bruins, I suppose it's McQuaid. He's an aging, injury prone defenseman, but the Bruins playoff success since 2011 is directly correlated to his presences in the line up.
Runner up may be Backes. Low trade value because of his contract and age, but brings a lot of veteran leadership to a young team that needs it.

Jesper Fast and Grabner both players mean much more to our team then the draft picks we would get for them

That was half my point as well (fully agreed). For some reason, Patches would get close to 2X-3X more than JVR with only a year more on his deal on these boards, yet he is arguably even more flawed than the latter.
Grabner and its not even close. Guy is gonna score 25-30 goals easy all at even strength or pk. Terrific on pk and makes Nothing.

I totally agree with Byron.
This may be unpopular with some Habs fans but I'd put Benn in that same category. He's a solid #5D who can reliably move up when there are injuries and can play either side, and at $1.1M for another couple years that's a great bargain.

I'm really happy that Hendricks has returned to form. He just couldn't stay healthy, I thought for sure that he was done after watching him last year.
6 out of 14 is certainly all. And goals are goals, empty netters are just as important to put the game away.
