Description

After the Karlsson trade, you move on from DeSmith (I see the Ducks as the best suitor right now), and then you are left with Carter and Granlund who put you over the cap. This is not impossible to move on from 1 or both of these contracts, but obviously won't be easy.

The hold up on this trade is Petry declines as SJS is on his NTC teams

The Hurricanes offer similar or better package and also don’t have negative or minimal value contract they’d have to move.

Even with bringing in Karlsson - still have no faith in this team on paper to win anything. Going to have major bottom 6 issues again imo. Can't help but think Dubas could have handled this offseason better.

I think the Canes do have a better offering of young players and prospects. Could throw in a roster player if SJ wants but they are not in as difficult a position as Pittsburgh. Seems like every trade scenario has them including something they need to offload. Carolina can move what they need without having to throw it into this trade. The Pesce move has to happen first, obviously. I think this is what is holding up the TonyD trade. Everything else has to happen first. I think Skjei gets moved, too.
