They give us a 55 point player who can play center or wing and a 4th liner for a year - OneKaneOneCup
It makes a lot of sense, but trading within the division is still an obstacle in the NHL and his NTC kicks in July 1. If we're on the list it doesn't bode well

It would need to be a draft day trade if we trade pick 31. Unless I’m misunderstanding you

Yeah i meant as in even if we can technically trade for him before it kicks in, it doesn't bode well to acquire a guy who has you down as one of the 8 teams he doesn't want to play for, days before said clause kicks in.

I wouldn’t worry too much about it IMO.
It’s not like he’s gonna pull a Berglund and up and retire

This is becoming comical. How many of those conn smythes did he win in buffalo?
This is a pretty good look at the impact. Tampa gets shelled a bit defensively relative to their average when he's on but he really brings the offense. - Sabresfan-365
They use Point to match up against other teams top Centers too
If Tampa loses their minds & decides to move him, i hope we are at least calling to see what it takes
He’s a hell of a player imo
Could end up being a Selke guy
And he’s already pretty great offensively
Idk what’s not to like???
