NSH would likely not be the team. They did just trade McDonagh, but they have a number of LD prospects who are deserving of NHL time and will likely step up, so the 2LD spot likely is taken care of internally. The bigger issue is on RD, where NSH needs someone to replace McDonagh's playstyle, being a physical, defensive, and big-bodied defenseman. Kulak could theoretically do that, but trying to wrap that up on RD is probably more important by signing someone like Pesce.
Pesce also likely makes more than what you have him at. At that cap CAR likely would have already signed him to an extension. Apparently, he is looking for 6M+ per year.
