Stamkos

Its a good spot for him, just too much for him

I honestly have no clue what Tampa would be willing to take for Stamkos. I could see them accepting a decent winger and a second or 3rd or I could see them wanting a lot. His NMC may make things tricky as well.

He flat out refused to waive last year isn't waiving this year and next isn't looking to likely either. He gave up a bunch of money to stay in TB because he loves living in the area.

I've never understood why someone would enact the NMC. If the team comes to you and is looking to trade you, wouldn't you think they don't value you as much as you should be? I get it's great living in Tampa, no state tax, and the team is awesome, but if it were me it would be tough for management to say we are looking to trade you and for me to want to stay.

I'm just the opposite if I give up hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to control where I work and live I'm not waiving it.
His contract is almost buy-out proof also his base pay is only 1 million per year the rest is a guaranteed bonus not subject to buyout so they'd save 667 k cap space
