So what I’m reading seems to indicate Tarasenko signing wasn’t a done deal yesterday. If it was we would have had confirmation by now or at least other sources confirming. Talk of Ottawa if they can move deBrinkat. Could be what’s slowing down his decision. Supposedly agent was talking to six teams at one point.

A “sounds like” tweet is not a confirmation. I’m waiting for that.

Wouldn’t be the first time we’ve been bailed on, Marchment last year comes to mind.

He counts according to CapFriendly. His cap is listed and they dropped Canes available cap from ~2.8 mil to a little over $2 mil to account for his cap hit. I’m no expert just what I saw there.

Yeah, that will get updated and he won't count against the NHL cap.  Much like the other AHLers we have signed.

The noise on Karlsson trade on Twitter has died down drastically. Like his trade talk fell into a black hole.

Because as of the other day, SJ was only willing to retain 20% of EK's contract. The only two teams interested seriously are Pitt and Carolina. Both need SJ to retain more plus add a third team to retain even more.

Looks like Pesce may be traded this weekend. Brett’s dad is saying his goodbye’s on Twitter.

First dominoe in the EK trade and Tarasenko signings. If both still happen. 

Nashville is probably the landing spot based on rumors. With the canes getting back a first round pick to include in the EK trade. 

 

Drury plus first for EK at 35% retained.  Maybe a 2nd team in it to get it down even more.

I’ve seen Nashville mentioned and a possible return being Fabbro and a first. Then both are flipped along with our first rounder to San Jose.

Nashville will probably allow him to still live in the triangle for at least part of the year.

i really don't know ho to feel about EK. i get he's a 100 point defender, but does the blue line not get worse with him and no pesce.

Probably but not a whole lot. 

Slavin - Burns

Orlov - EK

Skjei/Chatfield - TDA (maybe no TDA if they pull of EK) unless Skjei agrees to be moved. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I don’t want to move either Pesce or Skjei. People are down on them but their defense is ungodly most nights. We don’t need an offensive D line cause that’s all we could get. 
 

People also forget we play man defense. Too many new people too it are going to cause major issues.

    • If Raiden were a Cane, he'd get the double minor. 
    • I agree it does seem the league is against Charlotte but the picks they've made have been questionable. They've had sure fire picks fall to them and they keep trying to build a army of forwards who cannot shoot for some reason lol. You got to make a move in offseason and or trade for scoring. I get the best aren't coming to Charlotte but theres been opportunities at solid players with experience, that would've come just to be the man here in Charlotte. They got to stop over thinking this in the draft too. Take the best scorers available! I'm hearing we need more size on the wing, a big man, great defender, etc. but nothing about scoring or a shot creator. This team has been terrible at shooting the rock especially from the perimeter and its a iso 3 ball league, no one plays defense or really runs an offense. This franchise does not do well with developing players either. I've seen too many guys take huge leaps once they were away from Charlotte which is concerning. And even more concering that they're taking developmental guys when they have no business doing so. So, All that to say take a proven scorer, high basketball IQ guy, a unpolished player will not survive here.
