You do know Jake Gardiner stinks, right?

Carolina would be very happy with this deal.

I don't think he's bad. Just think it's not the right fit for him in Carolina.

Boston/Toronto ruined him. He's a 6th or 7th dman at this point.

Guys have come back from down years before. No reason to think he's beyond repair.

His back is done. He can still play but he would only be an Engelland replacement for more money

Instead of bagging on Gards, I’ll simply say they would trade him - this deal or any other deal that would make sense. The fact is they won’t.

I simply don’t like the idea of signing De Haan last year and trading him, then signing Gardiner this year and trading him. It just doesnt seem realistic to me.

Think the Canes hang on, and work with him on his skating this offseason. To me, he’s been adequate on the 3rd pairing but he just simply can’t skate well enough to play the game our system requires.

The way Carolina plays you'd think Gardiner would fit there.

Points mean nothing if you completely suck in the playoffs..If Vegas wants a F, they can get someone else than Gardiner

If you want to lose in game 7 he's the perfect fit. If you want to win than stay the hell away from him
