Description

Before Tampa fans freak out: I have yet to see someone find a good solution for their cap issues. This is a reasonable deal (freeing up 2.7M) for a team that is absolutely screwed due to flap cap.

Flyers fans also need to understand Ghost has almost no value, so the Flyers may get even less than what I've proposed.

This gives us enough space to call up Patty if/when he's healthy. I see him playing limited 4th line role when he first gets back, but we will see. Head injuries suck.

Just take a look at the long term outlook of that Johnson buyout.......

Philly is not the partner that should take on Johnson for Tampa

Also this still isn’t great for Tampa because they need about 10+ mil cap relief where here they only gain 2.7 and lose a much needed top 4 defender. They’d also probably decline.

You cant buyout Johnson. So you'd be over the cap.

Also, Tampa doesn't wanna trade Foote. But they'd trade him before trading Cernak.

Kings decline, Ghost is not the veteran presence of solid defensive play they want paired with their prospects. Send him to a team with a great stay at home to play him with and he will explode.

True, not ideal for the long term, but they gain a good, young D man. I worry that he would get plucked by Seattle the following summer though.

What would you do to clear up their cap situation?

If he waives NTC to go to Philly, he can be bought out, no?

I'd be OK with Foote though....
