Let's also realize that fantasy name value is a lot different than actual NHL value. All, nope most, nope some, definitely a few GMs know what they are doing and they are going to see TB's cap situation and realize the problem they are facing. The old saying is when a GM sees someone struggling to stay afloat, they throw an anchor and not a life preserver.
Tampa Bay is going to have to move two forwards with very little return. I also have a funny feeling, (ok I am wishing) that this summer is the summer that the RFA Offer Sheet returns to the NHL for good. There are going to be too many RFAs on teams with no cap room to pay them what they are worth. A smart GM with some cap room would sign Sergachev and Cernak to offer sheets with one having a salary of $about $4.2M and the other with a salary of $6.3M. It would be very difficult for TB to match both of those and the worst case scenario is a team gets 2 top 4 dmen for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks.
