I expected people to find the chart interesting in the same way that people track the Lindros trade, not to think that I actually cared about the trade results.
At best it speaks towards an organization that doesn't retain asset value that well.
Players don't retain value though. Should be pretty obvious that their value goes down as they get older and get closer to the end of their contracts.
The Oilers actually did really well in that trade long term. Check out what the Blues and Ducks ended up with after trading him. The Blues have Jordan Binnington and the Ducks have nothing left(and basically nothing of substance along the way).
