Gets out the popcorn for this offer

honestly a good trade value wise and gives Vancouver much needed stability on the back end but I don't see why tampa would do this

Sergachev is due for a extension at the same time cirelli, cernak and killorn are. I value those guys over him tbh so either him or Mac are gonna have to go so why not get value for Sergy

Any way to not give up Pod?

Boes (50%) +(?) For serg

Boeser

I added podkolzin just due to The fact Tampa lacks that true prospect to get the fans behind. Yes I know they shouldn’t car with back 2 back cups but if we’re trading a fan favorite in serg I can’t have it be a 1 for 1 with the possibility of boesers failure to reach the goals set. Thats also y I added raddysh and a first as I know pod isn’t cheap as he shouldn’t be. Also think it would help get caunck fans behind Bennington for a little bit

They most likely don't. Back to back Cups are due in large part because of the depth on the back end.

No way Tampa does this. Back end depth is way more important than forward depth.

I seriously disagree with your final statement in your., description about TB needing desperately a top 6 foward, especially considering both Point and Kucherov will be back early January the latest.

I see your point but Tampa is gonna need to win games now and who knows if those timelines are correct or if another Man goes down during that time

They have points in 11 of their last 12 9-1-2 and tied for 7th in the league in point% after a slow start no time to make a panic move ( like this). Coach Cooper has been very satisfied with the play of guys like Katchouk and Raddysh. Proof of this is their growing TOI and important situations they're being put in.
