We don’t need to be trading 1st rounders. This team is already ahead of schedule but that doesn’t mean it’s time to go all in. We aren’t one or two players away from contention.

Canes say no. Canes don’t need Allen and Harris likely goes on waivers for us

On one hand at C COL has MacK, Colton, FO, and RyJo, at wing they have Rantanen, Nuke, Lehky, Drouin, Wood, LOC, Parise, Cogliano, Kovalenko coming, Kiviranta, and guys sitting in the AHL like Meyers, OO, Tufte, and Foudy. On the other hand they have less than $2M in cap space but for some reasons they are going to do this trade? Come on now why in the world would COL trade one of their only centers and 3 draft picks to net $1.5M in cap space it makes no sense.

I thought RyJo had a second year left, which is why I did that trade. I’d agree it makes no sense after I learned it was a single season.

No interest in saving 5 million dollars?
