Florida can’t trade their 2026 1st for now due to the condition in the Tkachuk trade.

It would be difficult for Florida to sign Monahan because he will probably want a significant salary raise.

Struble or Kovacevic (<1M) seems to be better options to save some cap space (Barron needs a new contract ~1.5M).

A Spencer Knight trade seems highly possible to save some cap space in 2024-2025.

I know the Buffalo trade is minor, but even though I like Robinson I'd do that. Id even take Cousins off your hands as well

The reasoning behind going "all-in" doesn't make a whole lot of sense. FLR doesn't have a whole lot of future assets and to give what they have and let Reinhart walk would be foolish considering that the targets expected to make a difference are mostly rentals as well. It's almost as if FLR would be paying to rent Reinhart (an own rental). The smart thing to do if they go all in would be to re-sign Reinhart (if they can) or keep their futures (by not going all in) if they are letting him walk or suspect that they might not be able to re-sign him.

Rhino likes it in Florida, wouldn't be surprised if he took less to stay. Wish Buffalo wouldn't have F@cked Up with him, guy just wants to Win. And he is always out there, hardly ever misses games. He's a Soldier.

These trades are terrible for Florida. They’re not doi no any of them. Plus they’re not giving a first for a third. Like center. Especially giving mackie away in the processs.
