Thread: I wish someone would offer sheet Tampa
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RamonDaze</b></div><div>I agree, I think it's insane if the other teams let TBL keep all of their 3 RFA's. I do wonder if the players have already received one or more offer sheets and are holding out hope TBL can move Tyler Johnson and/or Palat. Again though, if I'm an opposing GM, for $5M per season would I rather have Johnson for his early 30's or Sergachev for what should be the early part of his prime years?</div></div>

I looked at Tampa's capfriendly and with 17-man roster they have 3.6m in space. We've seen how little sympathy GMs have to help others so I'm super curious about how Tampa will solve this. Odds are pretty decent that Tampa will have to deal a major piece at a huge loss and then still convince one of Segachev, Cirelli, or Cernak to sign a 1-year deal near the league minimum. They can at least sell the idea of running it back to their RFAs

Thread: Leafs porn - Offer Sheet Cernak Gudas Kuemper Simmonds
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DiehardRedWingsFan58</b></div><div>So Andersen gets a 1st round pick, While Kuemper pretty much gets a meh return. Yeah don't think so.</div></div>

Context matters. Carolina reportedly has interest in Andersen and Dubas began negotiations with a steep ask. The Yotes have a goalie tandem that will get broken up prior to the expansion draft and they played Raanta slightly more than Kuemper this year - so teams will not be blowing them away with offers. Also, did you read my caption/description at the top??? I touched on the fact that the listed deals might not be enough and that the leafs have the assets to make this roster happen but it's just a matter of what they're willing to give up. The way I listed them would be a win for the leafs.
