I do not think Foote will be moved, cheap for another year, then RFA after that. I would try to move Rutta if we were to traded a RHD, (which I am against unless there is a rental RHD that was an upgrade).
All we need is a healthy team as is.

 

[JFleegs]

As much as I’d like to upgrade the RD position it never tends to work out at the deadline. Fowards always have a bigger impact in the playoffs, as it’s easier to adapt to a new team quicker. Plus having a hopefully healthy bogo we should be fine back there.

Also if we could land a multi year good cheap back up goalie that would be nice

 

[Hoek]

I guess a faceoff ace would help or someone that can chip in more offense on the lower lines in case the kids don't work out. Backup goalie upgrade would be okay too but not holding my breath lol.

 

[RussianGuyovich]

backup goalie would be great, but whats the point? if vasy goes down for any appreciable stretch in the playoffs we're boned. so you pick up a goalie in the offseason and not give up the miniscule amount of assests we have that we need to utilize for future planning.

that said, if foote had any discernable value i'd unload him as i dont think he fits our mold. but he doesnt, so he needs to just get good.

Lawson Crouse - Arizona Coyotes

6'4 215 power forward that can skate like the wind and is tough to play against. He was excellent when he played against us and like Goodrow, I feel like he would take off post trade

 

[LordZapp]

Rakell would be crazy. Don't think we can afford.

Don't think Arizona would want to give him up.

Don't think Arizona would want to give him up.

I know Philly was calling about him and they seem to thing he can be a 20 goal plug and play guy with more development

 

[Point21]

Another player that just became available is Jack Roslovic. he is making 1.8m this year and is an RFA with a QO of 2.21m next year

 

[HoseEmDown]

We have no cap. Any deal would need to be cap neutral and I can't really see us trading anyone going for a 3 peat. The likely trade pieces would be Katchouk or Foote for upgrades but there isn't really any making that little cap.

JBB could always try the 75% retain strategy again, or even go a step further and make it a four-way trade and get 87.5% retention.

Can only be retained on twice to a maximum of 75%. Would work great for Crouse since Arizona and the 3rd team would only be on the hook for this year.

Taking into account the fact that we have no cap space without moving players and ignoring teams that are probably in the playoff hunt the following names stick out to me:
Nieto, Balcers and Middleton (SJS)
Zdeno Chara (NYI)
Nicolas Deslauriers (ANA) (maybe they want to make the playoffs? I haven't looked at standings out west)
Brandon Hagel (CHI)

Our hands might really be tied anyway. I don't think our prospect pool has much value, and there aren't a lot of clear upgrades available.

With double retention he comes out to 1.75M, I think. Not easy, but probably doable.

Would be difficult but holy crap would Pavelski be an absolutely perfect fit.

 

[JTBF81]

Even with double retention on Pavelski, 1.75 will be very difficult unless Tampa has someone on ltir until the playoffs again. In order to fit in Pavelski for one run they'd likely have to move Rutta+one F(Joseph most likely). Not sure that's worth it. I would rather package picks/prospects to get Severson twice retained and move Rutta(who I doubt stays after this year) or perhaps the team could look at Crouse from Arizona(although he'd probably require an overpay and not sure Tampa could re-sign him). Nieto, Balcers, Brassard or Jarnkrok could be decent options as well if the cap could be managed.

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

I'm really intrigued by this Kuzmenko guy. If he's good in the NHL, would anyone blink at moving out Katchouk, Raddysh, or Colton to make room for him (strictly assuming an ELC signing situation, not a trade)?

Wtf really?
Holy f***, with Pavs we'd be an absolute W A G O N.

Where and when?

 

[Felonious Python]

I don't think TB ends up trading any roster players since depth is going to be so important these playoffs. Player rights & picks would more likely move.

 

[Felonious Python]

Where and when?

Probably like 2019. When does TB let info get out?
