While TB might agree to a deal in that ballpark, I can't really see Johnson waiving his NTC. He'd be moving from a TOP3 contender to a team from the other side of the continent, still retooling and probably finding themselves a spot as a decent playoff team.
Also Khudobin has been so good for DAL for last couple of years that he's in no circumstance getting a discount compared to his former contract. Imo a team such as NJ should give him a 2-year $4,5M contract and try him as 1G with Blackwood as 2G...
