You have to think about these trades from the perspective of both teams, put yourself in the other teams shoes.
TOR trade: Would you give up a young top line winger for a guy who can't reach 40 points and is known for being incredibly inconsistent and bad defensively, A bottom pair defenseman about to retire, A 4th line center who is slightly overpaid, and a 1st? I know I wouldn't.
WPG trade: You've got a young top pair defenseman, would you give him up for a 40 point 2nd line winger, A 3rd pair defenseman, a bottom 6 forward who is overpaid long term, and a 2nd?
BOS trade: It's been proven time and time again that Vanek has no trade value. He went for Jokinen and Motte at the last deadline. He's bad defensively and teams don't pay up for him for that reason. To think we'll suddenly get gold for him is laughable.
PHI trade: Howard is not worth a first round pick, and Ericsson serves no purpose to them since they've got young defensemen coming up.
This isn't NHL 19 where you can just keep adding until both value bars are the same length. 4 quarters does not make a dollar in the real NHL.
