Eric Lindros was supposed to be the next league superstar, and while he was playing, he was one of the most dominant players in the game, but unfortunately that was not for the team that drafted him.

In his draft year, he told the Nordiques that he would not play for them if they drafted him first, he would not play for them, but instead they called his bluff and drafted him anyways.
A year later they decided to finally trade him, and here are 5 other offers that were on the table for Eric Lindros:
NEW YORK RANGERS:
Alex Kovalev
Tony Amonte
Sergei Nemchinov
James Patrick
John Vanbiesbrouck or Mike Richter
(multiple first round picks)
$20 million
