FLA is looking to lose the Bob contract
FLA is looking to contend now and into the future

Think the most fundamental problem with trading Bob is the NMC of his contract. He would not leave a playoff team to a rebuilder...

this is very strange
Gibson is a very good goalie and has a history of being one of the best
But I really really don't want to part with knight

I like this idea a lot but with Gibson turning 28 in a month and just being solid the last two years... idk... Spknight does seem like he's quite something

It seems he's about an Ullmark level goalie now

Next 2 years maybe he's worth 6M$ but after that 😬
