Stars easily decline. Bourque has more value than Lundkvist by a considerable amount.
Lundkvist gets Dellandrea from Dallas, he’ll never get Bourque.

If Dallas Bourque is on the table, so is Schneider. If you're not trading Schneider, you're not getting Bourque.
Lundkvist gets you Dellandrea
Can't say I totally disagree, but it's more complex. While Bourque has more value than Lundkvist, Schneider holds more value than Bourque. I think it looks something like this:
Schneider = Bourque + ...
Bourque = Lundkvist + ...
Lundkvist = Dellandrea + ...
We could quibble about what "+" means in each case, so I won't start that debate here. As a Ranger fan, my real question for Dallas is: how do you rank Bourque, Johnston, and Stankoven? I'd be more inclined to package Lundkvist plus something for whichever of those three is ranked #2 in your system.
