Come on guy who we gonna get to replace that third line

Tampa is losing 5 of 12 in this scenario when you factor in Goodie and Coleman. Still a ton of work to do. Think it's gonna take more than a second to move Johnson too

No team really wants Johnson and his 5m X 3, He's all yours., especially with his NTC But agree that Seattle takes Gourde. But with M NTCs, Killorn and Palat seem the more likely candidate for trade.
Even at that 11m to sign six players....

Its funny how you think teams will take on these contracts for free

LOL .. all these comments are driven by Tampa jealousy than market dynamics.. have great day ..

And to replace a 3rd line?.. we have $12M in Cap . Colton a 3rd line stud .. other 2 slots are UFAs or Stephens/Joseph etc .. the biggest gap is PK .. we need 2 experienced PK .. we really just fine tuning bottom 6 ..

You have 11 mil to sign 6 players. You are going to be dressing 2 or 3, 3rd and 4th liners in your top 6, that doesn’t spell three peat, it spells struggle to make the playoffs. They would be much better off moving a defenceman and bringing back good young pieces and keeping one of the forwards you moved.

" .. struggle to make the playoffs .. " .. just wow

If Seattle doesn’t accept Johnson with sweetener(s), then they can keep Johnson or Palat, depending on the deal they want to make. If they do decide to move all three, then they can realistically keep Coleman if both sides agree. Tampa could still then run something like:
ABB-Point-Kucherov
Killorn-Cirelli-Stamkos
Coleman-Colton-Joseph
Maroon-Stephens-Raddysh

Hedman-Rutta
McD-Cernak
Sergachev-Schenn/Foote

Vasilevskiy
Cost efficient #2

Tampa could switch things up a bit depending on which player is kept/if another younger player earns their spot, but this team is still a contender. If Johnson is moved to Seattle, and Palat is traded for value, then it gets tricky if they want to keep the Coleman-Gourde connection, as that would likely necessitate the trading of Killorn as well. It will be an interesting next week or so.
