This is We Don’t Talk About Bruno from Encanto rewritten to elicit how Tanner Jeannot got Nashville a king’s ransom compared to what Tampa would get if they decided to trade him.

We don't talk about Jeannot, no, no, no!
We don't talk about Jeannot... but

It was a deadline day
It was this deadline day
We were getting a guy with an egregious amount of picks
An egregious amount of picks

Jeannot walks in with a mischievous grin-
Lightning!
Did I ask for audience participation?
I'm sorry, Brisebois, go on

Jeannot says, "It all looks good"
Why did he tell us?
In doing so, it’s all misunderstood
Hagel, get me a bagel
We’ve done what we could
What a joyous day... but anyway

We don't talk about Jeannot, no, no, no!
We don't talk about Jeannot!

Hey! If Tampa Bay tried to trade Jeannot to the Capitals or Seattle
He would probably go kicking like a herd of cattle
I associate him with a rattlesnake’s rattle, ch-ch-ch
He’s a heavy lift, with a gift in battle
Leave it to the coach to be the boat's paddle
Grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand
Do you understand?

A six-two frame
Rats have his back
When he plays the game
He tries to stay on track
Yeah, he sees your soul
And maybe scores a goal (hey!)

We don't talk about Jeannot, no, no, no! (We don't talk about Jeannot, no, no, no!)
We don't talk about Jeannot (we don't talk about Jeannot!)

He came here for five draft picks
His next trade: one! (No, no!)
He shouldn’t let it get to his head!
Or his career is done... (no, no!)
He said that Nashville’s bashful tactics were as funny as a pun (no, no! Hey!)
Maybe he can create lightning in a bottle for fun!

They told me that the player of my dreams would be promised, and someday be mine
They told me that this player would grow, like the grapes that thrive on the vine
Yeah, Jeannot's on his way

He told me that the player of my dreams would be just out of reach
Belonged to another
It's like I play him now
Hey Cooper, you can play Jeannot now (you can play Jeannot now
You can play him now

Um, Jeannot...
Yeah, about that Jeannot...
I really need to know about Jeannot...
Gimmie the truth and the whole truth, Jeannot
(Corey Perry, your boyfriend's here)
It's game time!

A seven-foot frame (it was a deadline day, it was this deadline day)
Rats have his back (we were getting a guy)
When he plays the game (with an egregious amount of picks)
He tries to stay on track (an egregious amount of picks!)

Yeah, he sees your soul (Jeannot walks in with a mischievous grin-)
And maybe scores a goal (lightning!)
Did I ask for audience participation?
I'm sorry, Brisebois, go on (Yeah, Jeannot's on his way)

Jeannot says, "It all looks good" (a six-two frame, rats have his back)
In doing so, it’s all misunderstood
Hagel get me a bagel
He's here!

Don't talk about Jeannot, no! (Why did I talk about Jeannot?)
Not a word about Jeannot!
I never should've brought up Jeannot!

I think Tampa's performance issues come from the stars f-ing off and deciding not to play good hockey. Jeannot, in all fairness, is doing what he was brought over to do. Be a menace. I don't know if this is his problem, it might be an issue of the guys making 8m+ not acting like it.

I agree. Tampa's got too many people making to much money. At least one of Hedman, Stamkos or Kucherov are going to be moved in order to make cap for the younger guys in the offseason or the season after.

Was he an overpayment? Sure. But let's not be quick to crap on the guy who sees the ice 12 minutes a night. There's a reason Cooper benched the stars a few games ago.

Jeannot has been just as advertised for Tampa. They should be very happy for him. The problem has nothing to do with him. BriseBois made the right move he just gave up too much. If he kept the 2nd 3rd and 4th then its a good trade. We got a bag but man do I miss him

Are you serious? Couple reasons none of those three go anywhere .
1. NO MOVEMENT CLAUSE!
Stamkos couldn't be replaced by a league minimum contract if bought out with cap saving.
2. All three have been very productive.
3. This is nothing new for TB
7-8-1 3/19-4/19 2022
7-5-1 last 13 21season
3-7 last 10 before pause

Guess Tampa's screwed cap-wise...

That's been said for the last three years, yet Julien Brisebois has figured it out, and has been extremely productive in the process.

They aren't going to get moved. Maybe Stamkos walks at the end of his deal but that is probably not likely at all
