Because he went through waivers for free and the rumor that JB was shopping him with a second rounder attached with no traction. So what did he do from then to now to increase his value?
And what you forget is there were a lot of players including Johnson that weren’t picked up on waivers last year because of Covid. The circumstances now are different. Teams have the ability to at least make some money again

I would do dirty things to get Killorn on the Kings. Shit I wouldn’t even do for a Klondike Bar. Cap dump my ass.
1 x 1st / yeat of contract that's the price. Like it or not no one is helping Tampa
You might as well be saying that it'll cost twenty 1sts or that the tooth fairy is real

I'm curious to see how Tampa's cap situation plays out. I see it as kinda ridiculous that because Tampa is in a cap crunch a guy like Killorn suddenly loses all value?
Johnson might need something added to him, but I'm sure a team in dire need of a C would be willing to be the sacrificial lamb.
I suspect the loser of the Danault auction will turn to Tyler Johnson...

It’s just on hf. The reality is that GMs are looking to improve their team, not “hurt Tampa”.

If Tampa is willing to cough up a 1st, I’d consider taking on TJ on the Oil. We do need a RHC, he’s been pretty solid in the FO circle the last 3 years, I think he’s still got the potential to put up around 40 points as a 3C. He’s overpaid, but I wouldn’t say he’s crazy overpaid.
We need more guys with cup rings in our locker room. He’d add some veteran savvy up front to go with what Keith will provide to the D corps.
But with that said, I’d still expect a 1st to be attached to him. Could throw a later pick going back Tampa’s way.

This is true. And that also means that GM's know that TBL has its back against the wall from a cap perspective so they will try to make a deal that can leverage that fact.
One year for teams to make adjustments to a flat cap versus no warning? I don't think so, and the contracts being given out right now is proof of that.
Competition to leverage Tampa into a better deal will drive the leverage down, it'll be a marginal effect if any.
Killorn had given an interview before expansion where he seemed like he’d be really upset if he were chosen. I mention this because he has a modified NTC, as does Johnson, and I’m not sure either would have Seattle on their trade lists as of right now.

Plus with Seattle taking contacts off of 30 teams hands
Johnson is from Seattle, I think he'd find 10ish other teams he'd loathe to play for before Seattle.
