Then Trade Graves and Sign Guentzel back

TB probably passes. Not exactly sold on Smith or what his role would be in TB. Realistically we only need to move Sheary to open up cap space to resign Duclair and Stamkos for our top six, and though he had a rough start to the year because of a new system Perbix is a really decent RD for the money, I understand why he's lucrative in that regard.

The only way Perbix is on the way out is if we resign Dumba or add a good RD in UFA, and even then I think they'd want to keep him as a 7th, either him or Raddysh.

Ah yes, the daily Acciari to NSH for a 4th proposal. Preds decline.

Tampa probably declines because of cap limitations, but not because Perbix is some high value piece. Moving him and Sheary allows Tampa to much more easily re-sign both Stamkos and Duclair, as well as having enough left over(after re-signing 3 other near league min contracts) to actually upgrade the 3RD spot. Whether that's with Dumba or another ufa in the 2.5-3 range, they can definitely upgrade there.

Yeah that's basically the hope. Personally I'm indifferent on Perbix and don't mind him getting shipped out, same time I don't mind a reasonably cheap cost effective RD that plays great in sheltered minutes either. Smith, at this point I'm not sure if he's salvageable or has any values but I just don't know if he'd even address a need for us aside from the caphit being the biggest turn away.
