No where close on Bennett

What is Florida expecting to get?

Counter question. Why would they consider trading him?

I read an article that he was being shopped to clear cap space. Hockey writers.com

Just speculation by Seravalli. No basis to it at all. Look at it from a logical POV. Barkov has missed quite a few games this year due to injury and if they move Bennett they have a real problem with center depth if he goes down again. They aren't rebuilding any time remotely soon with their lack of picks either so they have to just take this as an off year and regroup next year.

Right now Florida is like Vegas from last year. They gutted theor depth for what was essentially not a significant upgrade in Huberdeau to Tkachuk. However it will benefit them long term. This season they were very cap strapped due to buyout cap hits and the Hornqvist contract in it's final year. However next year, even with the Knight extension they will still have a relevant amount of cap space to address the core problems with their current roster (namely the defense). Vegas didn't sell off core players last year and neither should Florida

So Patches is just chopped liver to you?
