To Tampa Bay Leo Carlsson (P) Jacob Markstrom Ross Colton Leo Loof (P) Dans Locmelis (P) CGY 3rd 2024
To Florida Andrei Vasilevskiy (TB retains 50% of Vasilevskiy's salary through 2024-25) Yanni Gourde
I offered Aaron 4 1st round picks and a 2nd for Sam Girard, but he turned me down, so I had no choice but to make this deal.
Carlsson will be a superstar for years (for my cross-state rival to boot) and it sucks to give him up, but I have a decent shot of making it out of the East this season and owe it to this current group to make a run. Getting the best goaltender in the league in Vasilevskiy at 50% is huge, and Gourde is a top forward who I can choose to extend if all goes well. Thanks Colin for the smooth talks over this blockbuster.

Tampa agrees.
Just want to say the talks with Jay were great. 'Twas a fun negotiation. It's been a big day in Tampa, first Crosby and Coyle, now Vasy and Gourde. We're hoping the changes can bring light to a team that's been long stuck in the dark. Our goaltending still looks to be pretty decent, and now we have Carlsson to provide a future 1-2 punch up the middle with Eichel. We wish the best to Vasilevskiy with our rival team, and to Gourde as well. Hopefully he doesn't give Jay a headache with suspensions!
