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.
It makes a lot more sense when you compare Coleman's cap hit to JT Miller's and then look at TB's salary cap issues last summer.
