Seemingly lopsided trades where the "loser" ended up winning the deal

Lehtonen trade is a lose-lose. Still can't believe Lehtonen and Pavelec were the 2000's equilevant of 2018's Holtby and Samsonov. "Yeah, Kari gon' win the Vezina five times if he's healthy... and if he isn't healthy, Pavs is like the GOAT Czech goalie". Man...

Tbf I don’t find the Karlsson deal so bad now we’re about a third of the way through the season.

The guys we got in the deal are all playing well and compensating is for the loss - plus I think the fact we’re not stone dead last is a positive for us after the off-season.
