Pierre LeBrun: Teams that could be considering Tyler Johnson – his cap hit is $5 million but his salary next season is $3.75 million.
He could be left unprotected in the expansion draft next year. He’s from Spokane. Would Seattle Kraken GM Ron Francis be interested? Could a team ‘rent’ him for the year?
- Brian Lawton: “There are a few teams willing to consider it. However, Seattle is a maybe, lot of term and cap hit therefore the discussion pivots to the new world what are you willing to pay in terms of draft picks, cap hit and or take contracts back.
