I wouldn't worry about him. Tampa wants defense... we have none of that.I would trade any player in the organization for Jonathan Drouin if the rumors that he is available are true.
Obviously 'untouchable' is extreme. Someone could obviously throw something 'Mike Milbury crazy' at you that makes you pull the trigger on any player. But...
1) Larkin - After the year he just had, we will never get anything remotely close to his proper value right now.
2) 2018 1st rounder - Who knows where this team will be picking next year. But it could be high and with the new lottery system, anything is possible.
3) Mantha - Kid is going to be a goal scorer... already is a goal scorer.
4) 2017 1st round pick - Highest pick we've had in decades. I wouldn't be oppossed to trading back, but we better keep a top 15 pick.
5) Zetterberg - He is the flagship of the franchise going into the new arena. We really do need his recognizability to sell tickets. It would be a shame to open this arena to half empty crowds.
