Pierre-Olivier Joseph (23rd overall in ‘17) and the 74th overall pick in 2018 (Calgary’s 3rd, previously acquired).

Yamamoto + 40th pick in 2018? I'd like to see TJ on Drai's RW. I like the idea of having two guys who can take draws on the same line, allows a guy to cheat a bit more without the fear of getting waived.
Always liked his game, pretty much what we'd hope Yamamoto turns into, why not speed up the process? Not a bad contract, basically what you expect to pay a top 6 guy good for 50+ points.

Also I don’t expect Johnson to go anywhere. If Tampa moves a forward for cap reasons I expect it to be Killorn.

Are you joking, or...? Maybe you are unfamiliar with how caphits work?
Why would the league’s poorest team want to pay 9.4 million dollars in actual cash to a guy who has 21pts in his last 82gp?
You do get that Arizona doesn’t actually have to pay Dave Bolland more than the fraction of his salary not covered by insurance, right? And that Datsyuk and Pronger didn’t actually cost Arizona any real money?

Interesting, with us moving Hajek for McDonagh we could use a top LD prospect. Any chance we can get Crouse instead of the 3rd? We could use some size on the wings.
Would you consider a Domi + Joseph for Johnson + Dotchin? After the Washington series we could use the grit of a Domi. Dotchin could be a cheap Schenn replacement 3rd pair guy.
Really like Fox so that's a great start, depends on the pluses. What did you have in mind since you're short on picks?
Yamamoto is a nice piece but we need something other than more skilled wingers which we have a lot of. Instead of the 40th switch it to Bear and I like it more.

That’s where it becomes tricky... since we’re short on picks, what else do the lightning need?
Cheaper forwards. Bennett might be of interest but he's a huge risk but he plays with a bit of an edge which we need so even if he doesn't hit his potential could be a useful middle 6 winger. Would need him to sign for cheap after next year though.

Domi is a great fit in Arizona and had fantastic chemistry with Strome. At the end of the season. He’s great and we love him.
POJ was 23rd overall last year and has increased his stock since then. If you get can get value greater than a late 1st and early 3rd and no cap hit of any kind going back to Tampa, then you should definitely take that and run.
Joseph is good and would be a nice piece but not someone who I would pull the trigger on right away. I wouldn't have a problem flipping Johnson for a Faulk or someone like that, so taking no cap back isn't a huge issue. So Joseph + 3rd would be on the back burner as I'd look for a better deal first. We still have a good prospect pool so we don't need a futures only package for Johnson. I'd do JT Miller for Joseph + 3rd though.
