strome is a terrible fit for buf. cant defend to save his life, which is krueger's entire system. low event boredom

Flames decline. Sens accept

Tampa declines as well. No interest in lottery tickets at the moment and Buchnevich for likely 1 year doesn't fill a real need.

tampa has no cap space they need to trade for non salary assets

And they will trade players they want to trade. Sergachev for this isn't it. If Tampa even considered trading Sergachev to the Rangers, names like N. Lundkvist or Fox need to be at the top of the trade. Tampa isn't moving a 22 year old top pairing ceiling dman for pieces they don't need or want

well when you give everyone a no move/trade you dont get a real choice of who you trade or not

Tampa has plenty of choices, one of which is not taking a bad offer for Sergachev. Tampa doesn’t need another winger and a lottery ticket for him. If Tampa was even interested in trading him(they aren’t), it would take an offer that included pieces Tampa actually wanted. Since this offer doesn’t, Tampa easily declines.
