Look at you gm... If you don't know why it sucked then you should stop giving opinion on others choices.

Also, don't look at what Ottawa got, that a deal made by two GMs, lots of deals don't have the same returns from one year to another. Context, timing, positioning, cap space, player's attitude, ect are all factors that drive deals to be different from one another.

This is a freaking website to post "what if" moves... NHL19 has limits on what you can do, here, I can trade Stamkos for a 7th round pick, sign Point for 900k for 8 yrs... This was a "what if" post ... Still was closer to reality than your gm...

Well, they only have 7.26M$ of cap space. So they will need to dump big contracts to do so and this means someone else needs to grab those too.

And they have Sergachev to sign next year, and four RFAs plus only 3 defense signed for next year (20-21). They'll run out of space.

Now, I would rather see Bergevin call up Tampa and let them know he needs to play hard ball this year and offer the 1, 2, 3 rnd picks plus McCarron, and another prospect (not Suzuki), even throw in Byron if need be (I know I traded him up there but you can throw him in for the purpose that Tampa needs lower contracts to plug in their salary problems).

This would stop the "he's not making any friends" thing and have him play ball with someone. He could also inquire about Stamkos, Gourde or Johnson which could all go low without losing the 1st draft pick and give Tampa the Cap space needed without overwhelming Hab's cap.
