I have absolutely zero compassion for Tampa, lol. They just won the Cup. They are absolutely loaded with talent, most of which is locked up on below-market contracts. And, as mentioned before, Tampa gave him the NMC in order to sign him in the first place. At the end of the day, I do think TJ will waive, mostly b/c he'll feel awkward and unwanted in the Tampa locker room if he holds firm. At least he'll get a better chance to play top six on a new team like ANA, NJ, DET, OTT, etc...
