Hot take - if he can stay healthy, Raanta will overperform Andersen in Canes.

If both Andersen and Raanta are healthy they could have the best goalie tandem in the league

True, but it seems like it's all but done, same as Jaden Schwartz (hope I didn't jinx it

)

G Jonathan Bernier says he negotiated with #Canes for 3-4 days, but were far apart. Adds he thinks "they underestimated the goalie market". Martin Brodeur then convinced him to join #NJDevils

Still wish Waddell signed him. No wonder Brodeur had leverage there but I would've loved to keep Bernier.

Technically, he's the 3rd GOAT (behind Hasek and Roy)

I mean I think Waddell thinks this way too considering how much he paid for his rights.

He's seriously under some hot water with constantly underestimating the market value of players

Are there any plans to retire Jonathan Bernier's number in Carolina? He's a Hurricanes legend
