Boring and simple .. how most deals are .. Calgary MN and WPG were always the most obvious places .. if TJ not traded Tampa got issues .. cap wise and moral wise as team doesnt want him
Don't see any of those teams being interested in Tyler Johnson, Minny just traded for Bonino plus added Rossi at the draft. Don't see Winnipeg adding a 30 year old Johnson as their 2C after just drafting Cole Perfetti Calgary really doesn't need him and there were rumors that Johnson has zero desire to play in Canada.

winnipeg is supposed to have a deal line up for stasny today too
As much as Johnson's NTC is big factor,,IMO his contract is bigger factor for him getting traded. 5m X 4 doesn't seem like a good value at all, and Tampa really wants the trade to be no cap being returned to Tampa. So many teams are trying to offload cap and will virtually given away players, So Tampa is in severe competition in "cap giveaway" trade teams as well as the UFAs on the market.
