This is the worst trade I've ever seen for Florida. Why on earth would you help a rival get a player for a 6th round pick?

Imagine Domi scores an ot goal against Florida in the playoffs.

Baffling.

Yeah I agree it seems odd from FLA's perspective. Not sure why MTL, AZ, SEA or some other bottom team couldn't eat the money.

Fla gets a 6th for helping out a contender in the East? Like why? Probably could have gotten Seattle or someone else to do it but still?

And it will look even more odd if CAR and FLA play in the playoffs.

I also am higher on Domi than most, probably because I watched his 72 point season as Montreal's 1C, and it doesn't feel like that long ago.

If Florida didn't think there was a way to get another team (Not them) to eat the salary then I don't think they do it. however There are tons of teams that have the cap space to eat the money. so If losing $'s (domi's money) to them worth a 6th or is it not.. they said it was.. Now would they have done it for Tampa? I HIGHLY doubt it.. Would they be better off if Montreal Buffalo Arizona Seattle San Jose got the pick? not really.

Well none of the other team who can retain (outside of Montreal) care about screwing Boston if they were indeed in on Domi but if Carolina said to Florida, ‘hey, we need the cap space to get Domi and stop him from going to Boston, you in for a 6th?’ I don’t see why Florida wouldn’t do that knowing one of them are facing the Bruins in the 1st round.

To counter on the FLA comments. If they weren't willing to do it, I'm sure some other team would have been willing to for the same price. If a conference rival is going to get something, you might as well get something out of it too if you can.

You lads also need to add Korean BBQ to the list. Bos ....yes a Korean guy going by Bo in NC....has great bulkogi.

Try the all about the bo with the beef mandu.

Going with the theme established earlier — Cary has solidly half a dozen Korean BBQ places and the two I’ve tried (Seoul Garden and Okji) are really legit.

This is my perspective. Its not like Florida was the missing link between Carolina and Columbus in the Domi deal. Any fool can retain salary. We blew a lot of picks, we at least got one back. Yeah it's a 6th but there's always a chance.
