Description

"Because the Florida Panthers have been flying incredibly close to the sun with the salary cap this season. They’re dressing the league minimum, they’re carrying the league minimum of players. You saw last week with Aaron Ekblad when he was sick, they didn’t get a replacement, they played one player short. And so, they don’t have anyone to send down and that means if they’d like to activate Duclair, who I’m told is closing in on a return, he’s already skating, looking like sometime around Christmas at the earliest, he’s got a $3 million cap hit, and in order to activate him, they have no space. They absolutely must make a trade.

One option, may be one of the easiest options, would be to take Duclair and unload him somewhere for free, have someone take him off your hands, you might even have to pay given the scenario that the Florida Panthers are in, to have someone bail you out in order to make that happen."

The Panthers are playing Marc Staal in their Top 4, they could absolutely use a LD. Jets have a logjam and given that Florida has zero leverage, the Jets can avoid having to give up a more valuable asset.

Florida's leverage is that they could move the player elsewhere. 30 other teams will be sniffing around. Most can give up better than Logan Stanley and have a need for someone like Duclair.
