Description
The way I see it if Tampa truly wants to get a top 4 dman for this year and next they are gonna have to lose out on stammer. We’d still be short a top 6 winger and only spare change to work with if we get stammer at 6+ and a top 4 dman.

I think it makes sense to go out and get the younger, cheaper (aav wise) and best dman available.

IMO opinion there isn’t a better fit than chycrun as he fits our cores age, he can slot in on either pp. he can even get stammers wall if he leaves letting hedman stay at the top and Sergy can switch in with both guys.
He ends the same year as hedman so you take some money off hedmans contract and extend chychrun and boom we have a top 4 locked up for multiple playoff runs. Yes he is a lefty amd 3 of our 4 top dmen will be lefty’s but that hasn’t stopped us before.
Trade whatever you need to get Ottawa to retain on him even if it’s only 1 mil. That allows us to fill out our top 6 and keep guys like Paul in the bottom 6 for a little bit of depth

    I cant see tampa adding big at the deadline after they passed up on Hanifin who wanted to be here and only got a 2025 (likely 2026) 1st and a 3rd. Hanifin is better than Chychrun and I cant seem them letting stamkos walk without even starting negotiations. The best play at this point is hope Vegas dont resign hanifin and that he signs here at a discount or go after pesce in FA. Any scenario involving a top 4D will require sheary, jeannot and perbix to leave as I just cant seem them giving stamkos at least $5mil. If tampa didnt want to keep stamkos then why were they so against trading him and if stamkos leaves without even getting negotiations that will probably piss hedman off.

    I think the level of chychrun and Hanifin is not that much but to have him for a extra year at 4 mil+ cheaper is definitely the type of value this team needs

    idk hanifin is way better defensively but chychrun is probably slightly better offensively, I would still take hanifin anyday. In regards to his contract yes it is a good one but if we are able to get a defenseman in FA the picks/prospects that we save could go to buying another rental at next deadline and save value that way. At the end of the day though im not even sure JBB is going to do that, if I am being honest I think he is just going to resign stammer to a bloated deal and run it back which would suck but what I am expecting

    If Hanifin does make it to the market then sure I’m all for him coming here at around 6-6.5 but I’d much rather save the cap and get someone who can stay here for 2 playoff runs cheap and then still clock in somewhere in Hanifin a aav range when he’s due for a extension and he actually be the same age Hanifin is now when he’s up

    I would take Hanifin/Pesce or another UFA at 6.5 for the next 8 years + very good rental that could be double retained and could have term next year vs going for it this year with chychrun and only having him a 4.6 for one more year. I dont think chychrun is going to be the difference we need this season and after that he only has 1 season left before hes a UFA. I know he was born in FL but he is from Boca Raton so he is probably a cats fan and theres a good chance he leaves us in FA so him being younger wouldnt even matter
