I'm not necessarily a fan of moving Bjornfot/Vilardi because I'm on board with the rebuilding idea and I like what I've seen from them. That being said, I see the thought process for Sergachev and Cirelli. Unlike someone above says, I don't think Tampa laughs. They might look for better options, but I think it's something they'd consider based off of the leverage any team has dealing with them due to their cap issues. This gives Tampa two cost controlled high-level assets and gets them out of their cap crunch for at least another 2 years.
As far as expansion, I'd argue that at this moment in time Roy is more important than any one of Frk, Grundstrom or Moore. So I'd argue going the 4x4 route: Kopitar, Iafallo, Kempe, Cirelli and Doughty, Sergachev, Walker and Roy. Having Sergachev makes Clague expendable, especially with Anderson and Hults still in the fold.
