This is a great trade for the Devils IMO.

Coleman makes sense for Tampa due to his low cap hit but moving JT Miller (who is the better player IMO) for a 1st and a 3rd. Then moving that first, plus last years first in Nolan Foote who has had a good draft plus 1 season for a lesser player than what you moved out in the first place does not make much sense to me.

I like Coleman but it’s an overpay. Last off-season if they had moved JT Miller and their 2019 First for Blake Coleman and a Third round pick I think we’d all have been wondering what Tampa was smoking.
Well Tampa will get more goals out of Coleman next year than Arizona will out of Hall when he’s gone to another team by UFA.

It makes a ton of sense. They needed cap space before the season so sent out Miller to clear $5.25M. Now they’re loading up for a Cup run. Coleman’s low cap hit helps give them room to add more this deadline.
