I don't see a trade market for DD. Grabovski is a more proven center, was known for having a tonne of heart in Toronto, (see how he played against Chara), and Grabovski had a hard time getting a contract.
If teams won't sign players like him as a UFA, they won't be trading for DD.
Grabovsky lost out because he waited too long looking for the home run contract. The top 10-12 guys got paid then the money dried up.
If we try and trade DD next summer it will be a completely different market, teams will have money coming off the books, plus the cap is probably going up. There are always teams looking for centers and they often end up overpaid...this summer was different because of the drop in the cap.
