It seems like the last time I posted this, most of the objections were centered around the retention, not necessarily the concept of the trade, so I'm just going to try this again and see what happens.

for the purposes of this trade - gustafsson and stanley are throw-ins. They're reclamation projects that are cheap depth that Tampa can slot in next year for a million each and they're both young enough that they can maybe still become something more than what they are. Winnipeg just needs to included them to make the cap work this year.

The main focus of this trade is that even with the retention, Tampa clears $5.25M in cap space for the next seven years, and they return two former first round picks who are both cost controlled for the forseeable future in Lucius and Heinola. Tampa gets younger at C and D, and they shed salary both next year and for the subsequent 6 seasons.
