Tampa is going to make a hockey trade here. I just don't see them making a futures trade. The Lightning are supposed to be contenders. Plus, any trade they make they have cap issues to be concerned of. They need to ship out as much salary as they receive, if not more. I think they package Drouin and an expensive defenseman for a player that can help out now, and for the next few years, along with a UFA defenseman that help them out on the back end. I doubt Tampa gets the big return being suggested by some here.
