Pacioretty Wants To Remain In Carolina

[MillionDollarCam]

Per Pierre LeBrun, Pacioretty, who has yet to suit up for the Canes, has fallen in love with the city and the team and wants to sign an extension with Carolina.

Why not for the right price?

Absolutely, can never have enough goal scorers.

That is certainly the gospel truth.

During Dundon’s radio show, he stated that the Canes anticipate bringing Patches back next year. I imagine they’ll sign him to some 1 year / $2.5M deal that has bonuses if certain performance metrics are met.

Found this article from Finland where Pacioretty had his latest ACL surgery. His previous surgery on his ACL tear was done in Raleigh, which as you know he re-injured only 5 months after that first surgery. This time it’s a more reasonable 8-9 months minimum if he is able to return to hockey.

Pressure to win and management. Should have sat him until the playoffs.

He'll surely be back next season.

With Fast, Staal, Statsny and Stepan all UFAs at the end of the year, I don't see how they don't keep him.

Fast, is the first resign in my book. Followed closely by Staal. I’d like to keep Ghost, he and Chatfield make a good third pair. After that Max. Then we got to do at least one goalie… ugh. 
 

Though I did hear somewhere a rumor that the cap is getting a decent bump this offseason.

I actually don’t think Fast will be back.

I think next years lineup will be something like.

Forwards

Pacioretty - Aho - Jarvis

Svechnikov - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Teravainen - Staal - Puljujarvi

Martinook - Drury - Noesen

Rees

Defensemen

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Gostisbehere - Chatfield

Goalies

???

Kochetkov

With Svech likely to miss the first bit of the season, I could see us maybe going after someone like Bertuzzi as well.

I’d disagree. We might have to throw in another few million but that will be covered by the cap raise.

For me, it’s more about his age. I think RBA wants that grinder line to get younger.

I’m guessing Fast will want a three year deal to take him to 34/35 years old, I don’t see the Canes doing that.
