Trades in which a player traded from a desirable/successful organization to the opposite?

[The Panther]

Larry Murphy to Washington

??

He went there from L.A., which was a 63 and 66 point team his last two seasons. Then, they started 0-4-2 the next season before he was traded to Washington, which was alread a 94-point playoff club the previous season.

 

[Brodeur]

Jeff Friesen came up in another thread and I remember he had a segment on NHL Cool Shots during the 2002-03 season. He openly admitted being disappointed about being traded from San Jose to Anaheim. Friesen felt like he was a core member of a rising Sharks team and then sulked with Anaheim who were on a downswing in 2001.
