Description

Give Seattle compher, 2nd and 4th to take Johnson. I could see Seattle just buying him out and then still having compher on the roster.

Trading Graves before the expansion draft

Stamkos trade, strictly a salary dump to get under the cap for next season for TB, will need to have a 3rd team involved to take on half of Kadris Contract or just taking him for picks or prospects. Hard to gage this trade, given how desperate TB might be this Off-season, Stamkos' worth and his expandability. They still won a cup without him last year. He puts up numbers but also can't stay healthy.

Seeing Hamilton come over and have that group being your top 4 D corps would be insane. Plus having Byram and Timmons getting time to develop and not being tossed into the fire. Should be able to trade one of the top 4 D within a year or 2 to if those younger guys can take over.

I think the RFA and UFA contracts are close. Saad taking a little less for a year. Makar, bridge deal with that last year playing him 8 mil a year. It sets him up for an deserved pay out, he seems like a player who would help the team extend their chances, especially knowing mackinnon is on a team friendly deal and cap space will be tight soon.
