Description

I guess this opens up a slot for Askarov? After making this trade, I realized that Tampa doesn’t have much to offer Nashville except picks, and Lankinen’s contract isn’t a great fit without burning that precious 3rd retention slot.

Understand that this will never happen.

This greatly reduces the likelihood of a Barrie trade, so I wouldn’t retain on Lankinen. I wonder if BUF could be a good option for TBL — they have Comrie, UPL, and Levi, so maybe they try to grab either Comrie or UPL.

Edit: although it would be funny to have even more TBL draft picks

Deal. I think Askarov’s ready to get some NHL time.

Yeah, this trade really falls apart without retention, and I’m pretty sure Nashville would never do it if that slot needed to be used.

There’s really nobody that Tampa can send the other way to finesse the deal.

Lankinen had a .916 last season. Halak lost his first six games and finished with a .903.
