Sujet: if buff comes back
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Zwui21</b></div><div>The GMs approach is not the one of going "All in" and say **** to my prospects, future. GMs tend now to keep the window open as long as possible, and for that to happen you gotta pay close attention to prospects and picks. Especially Tampa, with the cap crunch they are about to face.
This is what had to say BriseBois on the matter, in an interview with LeBrun:

<em>I asked Lightning GM Julien BriseBois about that longer window theory last month, and he agreed the “all-in” short-term approach was probably not his thing:

“Then you’re putting all your eggs in one basket,” he said. “Even if it’s the best basket of eggs, it doesn’t mean you’re going to win the Cup that year. Then what do you do? You’ve set all your eggs in that one basket. You’re trying to build something that is sustainable so that every year fans believe you’re in it, the players believe you’re in it, you actually are in it"</em>


And, personally, I fully support this thinking. Going all in in a league with so much parity is incredibly dumb</div></div>

The Idea that this trade would be going “all-in” and saying f*** the future is not quite correct. If Tampa does this deal and the flip buff at the draft (which wouldn’t be too hard) they would have cleared Johnson/Gourde cap space which almost frees them of their cap worries. Yea you’d be giving up a first and Foote but at the end of the day what’s more important??

If anything I see this as a win-win trade. Tampa eventually gets room to resign cerelli and increases their cup odds and gets a serviceable 4C. Winnipeg gets a second line centre a trade piece and a defensive prospect.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>Johnson basically plays in Tampas top 6 as is so doubt he cares that much, he isn't waiving for Winnipeg.

Well if getting a 1st is more important than having a top 4 dman the Jets should really look at tearing it down a bit and starting a rebuild, Scheiffle is on the wrong side of 25 so might as well trade him and Wheeler.</div></div>

Not really much of a re build. Just kind of a re tool. Jets can easily flip that pick + for a better quality Dman than Pionk at the draft or over the offseason. Pionk likely going to get over paid for being on a stacked power play.
Also Jets aren’t making the playoffs this year so having firsts is definitely more important than a top 4 Dman. Gives the team trading power at the draft.

When it comes to your comment on Scheif and wheeler I would love it if the jets where to find a way to move wheels. He’s already slowing down and his contract is going to look terrible within the next couple years if it doesn’t already.

It doesn’t have to be Johnson. I’m sure Gourde wouldn’t mine waiving to get off of a 4th line. All speculation.
