Value wise - the Tampa trade is fine. Overpay but Philly but it would take an overpay to get them to make a move.
The problem is it doesn't help Tampa right now. Yes the $6M in cap space is nice, but if they lose Cernak and Savard they have to replace 2 good right handed defenceman and that's easily over $6M anyways.
Any deal that Tampa makes is likely to be a hockey deal to bring in cheaper players that can still help them win. People are going to argue that they're in cap hell so they shouldn't get good players - which may be true - but they're also really good players who may be winning back to back cups. It won't be hard to get value from them.
