Gourde and TJ have to be traded, but there's no way they would waive for OTT and MIN. As I said before, I can see them waiving for CGY (Johnson) and MTL (Gourde).

Zero point Zero interest in Donato .. he epitome of a spoiled shrimp pre madonna .. father was NHL and coach whole life including Harvard .. at least ours arent spoiled brats ...lol

What needs to happen is a "bad contract swap" where Tampa gives the shrimps for larger skating forwards who now dont fit a teams new skating focus .. i.e DETROIT!!!! .. scour the 2nd and 3rd lines of teams with guys over 2 years left on contract with between 20 and 40 points .. this is our universe to rid of TJ Gourde and Palat (maybe) .. if Killorn goes REVOLT

Killorn has been super impressive, but at this point I don’t see how he stays. Players won’t waive for Detroit. Maybe waiving them will result in them being claimed, but that’s risky especially if other GMs think like you (i.e: they’re way overpaid). That’s the only way out of the clause, and otherwise to keep Killorn we’d probably lose Cirelli, Sergachev, and Cernak. I would really hate to see that.

Agreed Killorn having a great year makes his trade value even better for the Lightning. As he's the only 4-5 million player that can be realistically moved after this year, I hope he has his best year in his career so Tampa can both move him without a sweetener and get better value. I don't want to lose him, but unless one of TJ or Gourde waives, it's the only real way to keep Cirelli, Serg and Cernak.

Killorn is now Assistant Captain .. "A" is off of Mc Donough which is interesting to me .. Killorn is arguably our best player this year .. with honorable mention to Hedmen. If he gets " JT Millered" due to management incompetence.. NO ONE should go to Amalie without an entire new executive structure..
