Phoenix could not afford to retain Brandon Dubinsky who would likely need around a 6 million dollar contract. That was just too much for a person we would place on the 3rd line.

As such, Phoenix GM Stepped up and ponied up for GM favorite Reilly Smith.
Reilly Smith is a player we specifically targetted as after watching him was thoroughly impressed.

To Tampa
3rd
Brandon Dubinsky
Chad Johnson

To Phoenix:
Reilly Smith

Why Do it?: Reilly Smith has another season of a salary at 1.13 million. Should provide a good rating at a cheap salary.We gave up alot of value but felt it was worth it to get Reilly.
