I wouldn’t classify this as a rebuild. You’re not losing any core pieces or bringing on any core pieces.

Tyler yes .. Killorn no .. Gourde contract too much and too long for 3rd liner

losing Coleman, Killorn, Goodrow, Johnson and Savard in one offseason is a big blow imo. This team still makes the playoffs with ease but unless Foote and Raddysh take major steps forward I wouln't be surprised if they get bounced early in the playoffs

Yeah that's why I said "Mini Rebuild". I'd definitely consider Killorn to be a big core piece. They're also losing lifetime Lightning Tyler Johnson, and 2 important pieces in Blake Coleman and Barclay Goodrow.

Seattle will pick who ever they want for who's available on this roster. you would have to give up a 1st for them to take Johnson.

Gourde is on a full NTC though. Palat, Johnson, Cirelli and Killorn are the only forwards without full NTC/NMC. Johnson to Seattle is obviously a no-brainer, and I'd probably go with Palat over Killorn. So Killorn is the odd man out.

I suppose..I see Kilorn as a fringe player versus a core piece personally and there have been talks about getting rid of TJ For years now and he’s got a small role on the team. Don’t get me wrong, these guys definitely help win cups and go on deep runs but to me the true core is Point Hedman Serg Kuch and Vasy (Stammer to a lesser extent).

Killorn is major piece .. trade Stamkos and Gourde and resign Goodrow. Johnson and a #2 to Seattle.

Killorn way more important than non Tampa fans know .. Stamkos is worse player on team right now.

"Stamkos is worse player on team right now"

Can you elaborate
