RichieNextel305 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Simply put, a wild trade. Nashville was reportedly asking for TWO 1st Rounders for Jeannot. Instead they “settled” for this package. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Uuuuhm, what?? 5 picks and a player for Jeannot lmao. I don't understand the market sometimes. Meier has twice as many goals as Jeannot has points this season and they end up costing basically the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa wildly overpaid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Isn’t Jeannot an RFA after this year? Very cost controlled good player. I’ll never doubt Tampa. They seem to make the right move all the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash or Czech Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Wasn’t there a thread about flipping Kravtsov for him? I see Nashville wanted a little more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know. But this trade is wild lol. Lightning are short on both D's and prospects and then they ship out a defender and FIVE picks for a bottom 6 winger. It's worked for them before (Coleman, Goodrow, Hagel), but this seems a bit too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess kinda similar to what they gave up for Hagel? they spent a lot on getting Goodrow and Coleman for their cup runs as well Think they just assume that if they can load up on the right depth guy for the playoffs, any cost is worth it. It's worked every time so far. Still this is a huge price for and if they can lock him in cheap and long term its not a bad look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're locking up all the pieces that they think are going to win in that window, Jeannot included. Once that's done, and Hedman is UFA, they'll truly reassess.

Valriera Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Tampa is really playing 4d chess locking up the "fairly decent but not lighting the world on fire" players on these long term, 2-3m deals. Maybe they just have it right all along? Jeannot certainly fits that bill. I guess there's some line of thinking that those players are the harder ones to find than the "superstars". Hard for me to believe but at this point it's impossible to argue with whatever Tampa's been doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 There’s no cost certainty with Jeannot next year since he’s not under contract, even though he’s RFA, so the price is a little strange and much for sure. Trenin has cost certainty and seems like more of a “Tampa pick”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yepp. What are they going to do rebuild when there’s still hope of winning a cup? Go all in this year and maybe next and that’s likely it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
