Trading Freddie for Mrazak leaves Carolina with $7 million to spend on 7 roster slots, including signing Warren Foegele to a new contract. I doubt that the Hurricanes would want to take on Johnsson's $3.4 million cap hit, too. And the draft pick swap is a non-starter. Freddie isn't worth a first-rounder himself, and getting Mrazak on the way back reduces his value because Mrazak is at least a viable NHL goalie.
I think the best you can hope for from Carolina is Mrazak and a third for Andersen. I saw a very imaginative Andersen trade for two excellent defense prospects (Bean and Keane), but I don't think that Toronto is interested in another LD prospect.
