Description

we already know how stupid it was to let McCann go. let's bring him back. the cost is steep but I believe it is worth it in particular because he could help solve the 1st pp unit as he has a great shot and we need more shooting and boost the second line instead of the underwhelming start of rakell.

also improvement on the 4th line with the addition of an actual center. very deep pk units...

I highly doubt the Kraken make that deal. McCann is one of their best forwards and signed to a very team friendly deal, and with Seattle still looking to win, he's a big part of their present and future plans as leading goalscorer and key contributor to both the power play and penalty kill. Not to mention, the package on offer from Pittsburgh won't cut it. Pickering is a great start, but the rest of it is underwhelming, especially considering Rakell's contract could easily end up underwater if his slow start and injury struggles continue. Ultimately, the Kraken would decline this offer and continue with McCann as an integral part of their core.
