Thread: Cap situation after Gourde

Johnson and Palat will be gone also and 10M for shopping.. a KEY signing to me is Ryan Suter ... Hedmen and Mc Donoigh need to play less in regular seasons .. he would be example of 4 or 5 guys come in .. vets who want to win.

Your missing the point ...he flips Killorn and Palat for 2 #1s and a 2.. they net positive

Thread: if someone takes another season off

Looking at many of the Seattle mock drafts.. there are alot of good D .. Seattle top 6 D could be top 10 in NHL .. Giordano Bean Fleury Dillon Cecil and couple other young guys. . I see Seattle taking forward from Tampa .. lets hope it Gourde

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gmonwy</b></div><div>Enjoy next off-season. Point, Joseph, Maroon, Crouse, Palat all need new contracts</div></div>

Point goes from $7M.to $10M ...Palat.is traded this year so non-issue.. Maroon done ... Joseph irrelevant and not sure who is Crouse ...people going to WAY disappointed when Tampa Cap "problems" disappear quickly in next 30 days.

Thread: Hear me out

What exactly NOT to do .. Tampa has zero interest in a damaged .. injury and Buffalo stain .. Eichel. He doesn't play the D now engraved in Tampas game .. he would be good in like a Toronto or Edmonton ...

Thread: possible

TAMPA would do this all day everyday day and twice on Sunday .. rather ABB stay and Joseph goes .. Colton ABB and Stephens are 3 "new guys" that could all be in top 9 ...

Thread: Compliance is Hard

Yeah we going to lose 5 to 6 .. Coleman Goodrow Savard and 2-3 of Gourde Johnson and Palat. Young guys need to step up and we WILL have Cap room to sign 2 to 3 $1M UFAs who want to come to win in Champa Bay .. look for Ryan Suter .. that pretty much is our model for next couple years.. KEY is to move Stamkos and his 3/8.5M AAV .. that would REALLY help and sign Point and Cernek LT right away.

Thread: Tampa

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pinslack</b></div><div>Yeah cap dump isnt the word. Gourde isnt a cap dump, but he's in a situation where his team has 0 leverage and needs to clear salary, i.e. cap crunch team. Therefore Tampa will not get much value not because of the player, but because of the situation. Gourde would be a cap casualty</div></div>

LOL.. NO .. for the billionth time for folks that don't understand business 101 .. NHL teams will pay a MARKET rate for a trade/player and they compete against what the MARKET bears .. It is not 1 on 1 negotiations with Tampa .. each team is different from a talent, evaluation, cap etc .. standpoint .. the objective for Habs or any team is to do what best for their team related to the other 30 teams.. not just Tampa ...please think this through.. exception here is Seattle which is a 1-1 and Tampa does have little leverage

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>islesadist</b></div><div>Johnson's contract is a 1st and 2nd round pick dump</div></div>

No it is not ... 3 year $15M for a 2nd/3rd line forward may cost a 2nd .. amazing how people don't get that he IS ON TAMPA .. where 4th liners are mostly 2nd liners everywhere else.. sad but true .. Johnson an asset to the MANY crap teams in the NHL ...

Thread: 3 peat

Can't see Seattle taking two 3/4yr contracts .. I do see them taking Gourde though more I piece together Seattle approach . Very few centers reasonably available

Yeah other than Killorn .. rest is good for Tampa .. and even Killorn is close ..

Thread: Tear it down to keep it maybe a stretch

Spot on .. Suter to Tampa for $1M .. he gets paid from buyout anyway .. Tampa can rest Hedmen post surgery and Mc Donough can rest until playoffs all I care .. Tampa biggest challenge is replacing Colemen and Goodrow . They were AWESOME .. need Pk .. Paquette may re emerge and 2 other vet UFAs .. I don't see Tampa missing a beat when their best 10 players returning .. 9 protected players plus Killorn .. DYNASTY

Thread: if gourde to SEA

The whole "not bail out Tampa " is both moronic and childish.. a GM does what best their thier own team. Period. If you dont get that then .. my Tampa concern is only Colton and ABB .. I don't think Killorn makes sense for Seattle and rod in leg makes in way to risky..

Thread: Unrealistic trade with Florida

Don't see trading with Florida .. rapidly becoming a rivalry more than Boston .. Florida was Tampas toughest out in this years playoffs .. they a few disciplined players away .. Suter would be great in Florida ..

Thread: if gourde to SEA

Wow .. finally a decent thread from Tampa fans questioning Foote .. as I have said .. he is painfully almost awkward in how he skates and moves .. thought Ben Thomas was much better .. other than Foote name and frame... not sure he plays in NHL long ... and Seattle's interest in Gourde could be "marketing" . They need a face .. some grit .. some Pedigree .. a hustler etc.. an expansion team needs a guy to to sell to younger fans.. Gourde fits that to a T .. if I were them I would take Colton instead and they have no interest in Palat or Killorn

Now we having some fun .. whonare the 4 or 5 NEW Tampa guys .. mostly UFAs .. coming into town .. Ryan Suter is my #1 .. rest Hedmen and Mc Donough 20 games this year .. all about 3 peat

Colton is materially more skilled than Gourde .. he ultimately 2nd line guy after Killorn ..

Thread: Tampa Cap 21-22

I hope he does do deal .. Seattle takes Gourde and a #3 and leaves everyone else alone particularly Colton and ABB... Palat is EASY to trade and worse case Johnson is bought out which saves 21 Cap alot ...

Agree we have to pay for Johnson but that WAY excessive.. did you see Saad yesterday?.. similar for a guy who hasn't played in 2 years!!!! .. Johnson was great in playoffs

And to replace a 3rd line?.. we have $12M in Cap . Colton a 3rd line stud .. other 2 slots are UFAs or Stephens/Joseph etc .. the biggest gap is PK .. we need 2 experienced PK .. we really just fine tuning bottom 6 ..
