This is probably what happens. However, if I was TBay I’d be much less sure today than I was 2 days ago about that. Letting one of the newest most exciting organizations roster this guy for the playoff push and playoffs…. They could easily win him over.
Tkachuk was obviously a very different situation (status, ability, open to multiple teams), but Florida had no interest in ####ing around with that. They wanted him, so they pulled the trigger in a big way. If you want a player, you have to act accordingly. All the “taking advantage of a young GM” nonsense is hilarious, like the guy hasn’t been in the league for decades, and like the buying GMs aren’t competing amongst themselves.
