I think Nashville passes. The prospects don’t seem like a can’t pass up opportunity Though admittedly I only know what I’ve read on them. The 1st round picks are going to be very late and I think Nashville could Atleast get a 1st from another team that likely ends up in the lower 20s instead of high 20s or 30s.

Detroit declines.

You're not getting a top-6 player, with retention, for a 19 year old kid who haven't played hockey in over a year.

It bewildered me why teams helped the Lightning out of their cap situation. SEA should have taken Foote or another young, cheap player instead of an overpaid Gourde. CHI bailed out TB with Johnson without demanding a king's ransom. TB should not be in the position they're in right now, but apparently the rest of the league want them to three-peat.

Youre way short on the NSH deal and short on the DET deal also.
