Maybe its time for a soft rebuild

Created by: TampaBayFan94
Team: 2022-23 Tampa Bay Lightning
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 12, 2022
Published: Jul. 12, 2022
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
At this point I would rather see lightning let go of the love for a few players that might screw us cap wise, meaning Palat wants and deserves over 6 mill, Killorn is on the downturn. Foote has been hit and miss, rather do a soft rebuild around core and not be afraid to make moves and move on. Cant replace players with 1 guy like Mac, Pally, Killorn but by committee we can.

Be bold and get Weegar

    Anaheim will pay that price for Killorn. The Los Angeles roster is essentially set at forward (and on defense with the anticipated re-signing of Anderson and Durzi), and we have only $1.6 million in cap space with one defense slot to fill.

    Soft changing of the guard? Tampa wants to win still, and for one year he can replace mcdonagh. Other pieces won’t develop on Tampa anyways

    Hes a potential 30 Goal scorer, big body, fast. Can emulate Palat and actually a scary PP threat

    He means a retool, but there's no sense in trading assets+an rfa D for a rental ufa to your rival.

    Cap


    He's right, at most Kubalik gets 4m. Something in the 3s is the most likely, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a one year deal for something in the 2s.

    It could easily work against TB if Foote breaks out and that extra cap allows FLR to form a better team.
