overpayed Bozak and Sanford isnt going anywhere

I can agree with the overpayment on Bozak but I wouldn't be shocked if Sanford gets traded. The last person to go to Arb was Eddy and he got traded not far after. Thanks for the feedback really appreciate it!

Even tho Nino likely leaves next year I can’t see Canes trading him. If they make a trade for Tara or another top 6 F it’d be best to slide him down to third line and they can afford to keep him with their current cap situation even if they bring in a big contract.

I also don’t see a trade happening now bc blues seem to want to showcase him to get better returns. If canes were to do a deal today I’d include a prospect like Keane or Rees and a couple of conditional picks based on GP and production.

I agree that a trade is not likely now but I think the canes get a player on high-risk high reward and we get a player that is low risk and could not even come back the next year. I do think if we couldn't get Nino we would definitely take some combo of prospects and picks. Thanks for the feedback I appreciate it!

Sanford didn't go to arbitration, the deal was worked out before it happened

You are right my apologies!

we just signed Sanford why would we trade him tho

Because we just did lol
