To Tampa:

To Los Angeles:
Erik Karlsson Rocco Grimaldi (50% retained)
Thank you Corey for the nice negotiations! Spent a lot of time thinking about moving Karlsson and it felt right with this deal, especially since we could get a very exciting, hard-nosed D-man in Bichsel and a 1st round pick. Bichsel is not quite NHL ready, but for him, we are willing to wait. Coleman was very important to us as well, as he can provide solid two-way play on our first line. It's hard to see Karlsson go, but we're very happy with this return. And of course, the more money we can save, the better! We wish Karlsson all the best in the west!

LA Agrees. It was toughest of all to give up Bichsel, as we think highly of him on our back end. However, for a superstar like Karlsson, it was well worth it for us, especially since Karlsson was signed for 3 years. Now with Karlsson, Weegar, and Hamilton, we feel much more confident in our backend going into the playoffs. Thanks for the easy talks Colin!
