There has been zero indication that Barkov is on the market, with 5.9M/2Y left before going UFA. But that doesn't make Florida a bad trading partner. It is unclear what their direction is, as trading Trochek at the deadline was one of the weirder moves.

Florida still has primarily futures to sell, and are losing two top six wingers to UFA.

Grigori Denisenko (might be untouchable), Owen Tippett (has the air of a long term NHL option Owen Nolan Lite), Henrik Borgström (look! it's Backlund!), Aleksi Heponiemi (horrible transition year to North America).

Barkov is in the Tkachuk+ tier of players.
