Description
Not sure if this has been thrown around and not sure if Lightning fans are open to it, but what would it take/what is the value tampa is looking for to dump McDonagh/Killorn?

I say this because instead of losing one/two of their RFAs to offersheets, they can maybe trade McDonagh/Killorn and get a 1st round pick back. They have Cal Foote coming up, they could sign sergachev , Cirelli, and Cernak, and still have a competitive blueline. Would a 1st do it for them (McDonaugh or Killorn)? I know Killorn or Gourde would probably be on the move first, but curious what you guys think.

And devils fans, is this something we should be shooting for? Is a 1st too much/not enough? What's the gauge on bringing a guy like McDonagh on board to be a minutes eating/1st pairing D?

And is Killorn someone we should prioritize trading for instead?

Curious to hear both sides of the fence here. Thanks guys!

      It would probably take the vancouver pick, you can't just trade a 1st pair Dman with term without getting a 1st back

      For what it's worth, NJ was on McD's no-trade list in 2018. Not that things can't change, but worth considering

      Tampa will trade you Killorn(provided NJ is on his trade list, which is probably s long shot) for Van 1st+Nolan Foote..All kidding aside, I think Killorn could go for a late 1st to someone if there are multiple teams interested. It would have to be a serious bidding war to get a mid 1st+prospect though. I think if he gets a late 1st or 2nd+solid prospect it will be fair.

      I don't see McD waiving his full ntc, nor do I believe Brisebois asks him to. He's still a very good top 4 dman for Tampa, and I would think the soonest he leaves is after next year if Tampa tries to get Seattle to take him if that's the plan. There are a few ways to clear enough cap to re-sign the three primary rfas, but having McD waive is pretty far down the list imo.

      A 2n and a 3rd should be enough for Killorn

      McDonagh doesn't waive nor is he the guy Tampa tries to move for cap space.

      McDonagh's contract sucks. I wouldn't take him for free.

      Killorn is worth a 1st.
