We don’t have cap space for another 7M dmen. ESP a LD, no

Kypreos is saying Hanifin and Tampa have a contract in place.

Just waiting for a trade to be worked out.

It's Kypreos though so take it with a bag of salt.

Hedman + Sergachev + Hanifin is a wild left side. If they trade and extend Hanifin, maybe they trade Hedman in the off season?

We do actually. We have a lot of cap flexibility this offseason. With Hanifin, things do get a bit tighter though.

Nylander eats the cap increase. We have to extend marner and knies, re sign domi, it’s not happening

I'd hope JBB would be talking with Stamkos.

Tampa will have to dump Sheary somehow and kindly ask Stamkos to accept 5-5.5 mil AAV on his next contract.

Hanifin would have to accept 6-6.5 mil.

Losing Stamkos to add Hanifin would be foolish.

I don't see Hedman going anywhere.

Marner and Knies are 2 years away and we have Tavares coming off at that point.

If we get Hanifin, we could only get one of Domi or Bert back though.
