They would trade him for assets before losing him to Seattle for nothing

Too many to protect. As it stands right now, we have to protect Hedman, McD, Cernak, Sergachev, and Foote. The only deal to be made is with Seattle. Maaayyyyybe they would accept a 1st round pick and a little extra to take a guy like TJ who is a local kid.

I think 4-4 is a viable option for us. The main 3 forwards we need to protect are Stamkos, Kucherov, and Point.

That may be the way to go. At least we have this year and two more before the Lightning must decide. Plenty can happen during that time.

Maybe the list will be Stammer. Kuch, Point, Cirelli, Heddy, Serge, Cernak, Foote?

Given McDonoughs age and contract I could see him being exposed IF all three young Dmen are performing at a high level.

Exactly my thoughts

Mcdonagh has a NMC so you will be required to prove him

He only has a NTC. In 2025-2026 it becomes a modified NTC

That’s what I’m seeing also. NMC are currently Stammer, Heddy, Kuch amd I assume Point will get one also

Domingue was pretty big tonight.

I think he is the typical back-up goaltender. Sure he has some bad games, so does Vasy. He was sharp in most of his starts, and I think he is doing a good job. Nice post!!

Kinda annoyed that I saw Cernak's first goal from the highlights and not live. The one time I miss a game...

Anyway, happy for the kid, it was a long time coming.

Don't worry, I wasn't able to see the game but those FREAKING ANAL CAVITIES at NBC put on the last place Blackocks instead of the Bolts.
