pretty fair trade IMO

Probably a slight overpayment but it makes a ton of sense for Tampa to do this.

Small issue here, Katchouk will 100% be claimed off waivers and Bogo probably will too.

there are obvious reasons as to why I wouldn't be happy helping Tampa, but at the same time the value is right on this one. Foote is a guy I've liked for a bit now and think will develop along a similar trajectory to a guy like Mayfield - sheltered on a team with good D depth before breaking out into a solid Top 4 kinda guy. I'd take this deal.

if there's any team I believe can find that $1.3M or whatever to keep both those guys on the active roster, it's Tampa.

"oh no Ondrej Palat stubbed his toe real bad last night, needs to be on LTIR for a while - at least til Game 1 of Round 1, I'm sure!!"

He did play good the other day but I’m not ruining our trade deadline Over a bottom 6 role guy. If they want to they can add him to a trade before they make this one

I just think the play is to upgrade Rutta and keep Foote. Foote is developing well.

Mayfield is not being shopped, but If a 1st and good prospect is on the table the Isles have to consider. Maybe even retain if there is another 3rd being offered.

This is a really fair trade, so hard to find these sometimes lol good job

Stop your making me blush
