Good thing that you're not a Carolina fan, or we would all blame this on the Hurricane fanbase.
Los Angeles just paid the equivalent of three seconds to get rid of a $5 million cap hit for one season while retaining more than $2 million on Ivan Provorov, for a net of $3 million in cap relief. Even assuming that our latently talented GM overpaid by 200%, and should only have paid ONE second-round draft pick, as you do here, what does that tell you about the value of paying Erik Karlsson $22 million not to play for San Jose? And there are some subtle indications that Erik Karlsson just may be worth more than Cal Petersen, Sean Walker and Helge Grans.
