Players on QOs are rarely traded because they have no trade clause and their bird rights don't come with them, so teams still have to use an exception or cap room to sign them the following season.
true, but a contending team might be interested as a rental/FA feeler
I think this is what it comes down to for me. How likely is it that we can get any value for Dunn next season, especially considering the trade restrictions? I have no interest in keeping Dunn long-term, but given our cap situation it doesn't really matter whether we keep Dunn to try to get value or just let him go. Might as well try to get something if the FO sees any chance to do that.
