Gourde is going nowhere, there is 0 reason for him to waive his ntc. The same can be said for Johnson, who most likely plays in Tampa next year then gets taken in the expansion draft. Killorn should be able to return a 2nd+b prospect if he continues an amazing season this year. JBB should try for a 1st straight up but more likely it's a 2nd and a prospect. Not a chance Tampa has to add to Killorn in order to move him. With Killorn out and Joseph also traded, Tampa can make the 3 main rfa's work. Shattenkirk is also likely gone which sets up the d next year with Hedman, McD and Coburn on the left with Serg, Cernak and Foote on the right while Rutta/Schenn can rotate in. Maybe Maroon signs another low 1 year deal but there will be a couple spots open for Syracuse players(Volkov, ABB, Raddysh etc to move up). I think Joseph gets moved in a trade for a rental Kreider, Toffoli etc and then they are obv gone as well. Cernak will be cost controlled while Cirelli and Serg will eat up most of the available $$. In any case it's manageable. Another big factor is where the cap is actually at next year. 84 million isn't unreasonable, although could see it a bit lower at 83 or so.
