Watch Tampa give up like a 4th round pick and a fringe ECHL level player with some other team retaining salary

HOLY SHIT. No, it was a teensy bit more than that...
As much as I love Bjorkstrand and think we could have potentially used Gourde... at that price, they can have him.

Agreed, that’s an extremely high price for getting these two players, one of them is upcoming UFA and the other has one more year left

Just post better
That's the price you pay as a Cup contender looking to make a deep run. Not the price you pay in... a different situation. It sucks in some ways because you can't compete with it.

That is insane. I don't see the team trading for anyone now. Looking like it won't be worth the cost
I know that everyone is emphasizing how much of a seller's market it is with returns like this, but how many more firsts are out there before some sellers are left without a trading partner?
Good on Seattle though.

Yea, I hope they are not buyers given these prices.
Sign the players you 100% want back next season and let this club go as far as they can.

Only chance I’d add someone with these prices is if it’s a last second deal on a guy that they desperately wanted to move and just tossed him away for nothing, like we did with max Domi a few years ago

I'm not sure what price you imagined - if Gourde was worth a late 1st as widely speculated - then Bjorkstrand for a late 1st (in 2026 or 2027) and a 2nd is what's left.
You think we would have been upset with trading our Minnesota pick and a 2nd in 2029 for Bjorkstrand? It's something like that value wise. I think people would have been happy with it here.
late 1sts can get fairly overrated. There is a time and place I love seeing the team acquire them (Savard and Foligno deals weren't bad) but to give them up when you are in a Cup window seems like a pretty obvious thing to do. Gourde seemingly fall off a bit has his risk but with where Tampa is you gotta take calculated risks, he's been a beast in pretty recent memory

I’d be furious. I’d offer no more than two 3rds for Bjorkstrand if I even had an interest. Which I don’t.

Nashville doesn't have a retention spot so I don't think so they can't retain on Schenn

Maybe. Are they allowed to talk contract before a trade is finalized? Like terms are agreed pending an extension.
