TB would look for any team looking to trade up,to pay a huge price:top young talent.The isles prospect pool isn't deep enough for them to give up
Okposo,Comeua,Bergenheim and or the #5 pick for Stamkos.Not when the Isles think they can land a stud at #5.
Reportedly Snow says Stamkos is the clear #1 this yr,but that the Isles scouts are raving about Filatov.Nemchenov coached Filatov at a recent international competition.I'm pretty sure that Sergei Nemchenov also scouts for the isles.
If Filatov's there at #5,I expect the isles to pick him.If he's gone,I expect they'll take one of the remaining top 4 defensemen.
