I don't think Tampa is actually taking offers on Cirelli, but thisnkind of trade would at least be one they'd consider. They shouldn't Wang lottery tickets or unproven prospects, but a proven NHL player in return. The other trades could be tweaked as needed in terms of pick value, but it's an idea of what Tampa could do with the F situation if Cirelli, plus the other three that are often mentioned, are traded.
I'm not doing that as a Tampa fan, trading our second line center and getting another wigner in return make little sense. I like Quinn a lot tho, he would be a good fit otherwise but, we can't run a team with Roslovic or Paul as our 2nd line center. I feel like this would make more sense on a Cernak deal. Let's say, Cernak and a 4th for Quinn.
Trading Cernak makes zero sense. Tampa can't afford to be trading the one good shutdown RD they have. They have no realistic depth at the position at all. If trading a dman us the route, trade Serg for a bunch of assets and use some of the cap space to add another top 4 RD this summer. Tampa could spend less at 3LW in thks scenario as well and go after a better 2C like Duchene, but this way balances out the top 9 much better imo.
I would think the higher pick would be going to Chicago in the Raddysh/Jeannot trade since it is Tampa who is cap strapped. Having said that I would do the player swap straight up.
I could see that as well. Just drop the picks entirely and do Raddysh for Jeannot.
Hawks likely wouldn't pay more than a 4th for Jeannot
Ah, then I doubt they'd be trading partners unless Tampa was that interested in re-acquiring Raddysh. Maybe Tampa would do Jeannot straight across for Raddysh, but they'll get better offers than that.

Hawks would probably be ok w/ a straight swap instead of a pick. Just don't think they'd offer both unless the Hawks don't plan to re-sign Raddysh.
