I think that's a silly question. IMO, just about every seller "wins" at the trade deadline. The one exception is the team that wins the Cup. But GM's know that going in. They know they're making a move they wouldn't make at any other time of year. It is what it is and you hope for the best.
Not true. You can still be a contender team and « win at the trade deadline » even if you don’t win the Cup.
Recchi
Seidenberg
Jagr
Etc
If you extend the player or make a long run, it’s worth the price. Especially with Recchi winning later on.
