I think part of this is JBB I waiting for more certainty on cap figures for 2025 and beyond. I think something gets done, hopefully something like a 4 year x 6m or a 3 year 7m. He could probably get something like 4×8 or 5×7 on the open market. Is it worth losing the ability to be one of those rare few to be a one team HOFer in exchange for an extra 10m or so for someone that’s made 9 figures on career earnings? Only time will tell
I think the way JBB will handle this is if Stamkos will take like 6.5×4 early in the season they will sign and move on. If theres no deal in place by the deadline and Tampa is outside the playoffs he will trade him . If we are going to make playoffs JBB wont trade him reguardless of where negotiations stand
What's the value of a good Captain and what they bring off the score sheet? How does trading Stammer impact our other top line players and their performance? I don't disagree with anything said but purely as a fan who's been watch Stamkos his entire career I would happily trade a few tighter cap years and us potentially not doing as well to see Stammer retire here.
I think they'll work something out. Stamkos is the heart of this team. Tell me, Who has thee most Shoot out goals. and for each loss the last game against the avs and leafs who scored thee only goals trying to keep the team in it? Wasn't Point, wasn't Kuch. wasn't Headman. It was stamkos.
