People here obviously still don’t understand just how good Brayden Point is. Bad season or no bad season, Dumba doesn’t come close to getting you Point.
Wild dont need wingers either. They already need to make room for Kaprizov

Cirelli won't be on the table. If Tampa trades for a defenseman it would probably be a first rounder plus a fringe regular player/prospect.

Plz stop pucks
Dumba isn't even the best defender on a pretty bad team and its been that way for some time. I like him and I think he can turn it around, but thinking that will fetch you an near PPG center is just unrealistic.
Point’s not a winger, he’s a 1C. Are you sure you’re not thinking of Palat?
The problem is even $2M for Martinez might be too much. Forget pinching pennies - we’re going to be squeezing them into dust in an effort to keep both Serg and Cirelli. I wouldn’t be surprised to see us move on from Coburn to save $700-800k or so and he’s only making $1.7M. So the question becomes is it worth a first for us to add Martinez for this playoff run and then (hopefully) flip him in the summer? I’m not so sure it is.

cant think of a single combo of assets that could land Brayden Point on the Wild.
young PPG 1Cs who play an elite(or close to it) Defensive game don't grow on trees

But the Toronto Sports Network told me it was taxes that kept all these players cheap in Tampa.

Would you blame them?? Can you see how many teams with tax advantages have won cups in recent years??

The only way any trade goes down is if 2 of these happen:
The only thing I can see happening, and it's a long shot, is Johnson waives for LA, SJ, or ANA to be close to home.
So before anymore trade offers happen, see if any of those conditions seem reasonable to work with. The last possible choice is finding a third party team that will take one of Gourde or Johnson that they would waive for. Which is even more unreasonable than the original conditions.
- Gourde waives his NTC and is included.
- Johnson waives his NTC and is included.
- Retention on the player traded to Tampa.

I guess its possible that we trade one of the firsts and a prospect for a player who is a rental, but we havent gone that route under this regime. I kind of consider JBB still a part of SY regime and schools of thought.
