That’s fair. I was just throwing it out there and forgot the pick part. I was just figuring even if he topped out at a 50 point player, we have enough fire power as it is scoring wise and some important decisions up ahead where two years of his cap would be great. Hell, you can even make a case to say 28-29 really aren’t there years to “cash” in with today’s nhl. The trend in recent years has been to overpay a bit earlier in order to get their best years and hope the cap continually went up where it looks like a future bargain. Fine we can let arbitration decide what the 5th best offensive production is worth but we may not like it any more than what he asks for. If by some miracle we got him to agree to yet another show me deal, does that make him a ufa at the end or is he still rfa

Under 2.5 cap hit for two additional seasons, 6-3, big body, technically had a good scouting report Out of Europe, is only 23, center, technically on pace for a mid 40s point season. I’d expect more as well in terms of a pick or two, which seeing how trash the Devils are, would be a pretty good pick.

Well I don’t know what to tell ya, I don’t agree with you on this one. I just dont see Tampa wanting to commit more long term money on defense when they already have a Norris winner and McD there. Being side heavy is one thing. The play for them is to still dump an older offensive contract to keep their younger rfas, not have around 20m cap space tied up in 3 guys on defense.

I don’t think Tampa could afford ADA on a swap for Cirelli and they really like him. I’d love him on this team and I think he’s a very very good two way player with plenty of offensive upside. Point for ADA doesn’t make much sense either considering you still have to re up a few guys on their end and ADA probably gets around 6m+ per. Unless they trade Tyler Johnson to a team with tons of cap and dangle a prospect in a cap dump type situation.
