They’ve freed up enough cap space for him. Guentzel’s agent is also a Tampa fan. Lol

They freed up 11.5m just in their trades today so yeah they have enough!

Looks like Guentzel is gone and will sign with Tampa for the offer the canes gave him minus the extra year

Tampa looks to be 7 for $9M versus Carolina's 8 for 8 deal. Florida has the better offer with no state taxes, but they're old and not a realistic shot at the Cup any time soon.

We`re just the same ol Canes. Just when we thought we had scoring help, it goes away. On the other hand, our pp didnt do poo in the playoffs and we were a different team overall. Looks like no Cup in sight for this team as we keep doing the same sh!t over and over hoping for a different result. I think there is a term for that.

[KillerKat]

Btw, I thought we were told we werent going to make any trades at the TDL unless we could get a long term deal as well. Welp...

We traded his rights for a 3rd rounder next year. Oh well, on to Necas and Jarvis.

Good news is this clears the way to bring necas and Skjei back while also making a solid run at Stamkos.  Honestly, if we do that then it’s really not that big of a drop off. It’s arguably the same if not a little better.  Stamkos would solve a 2nd line center problem we have and Jarvis will be even better. I would argue Jarvis will be better than AHO in a year.

Instant offense. A leader and someone that can run a power play. Too me, this makes too much sense.  Guentzel to Tampa and Stammer comes to Carolina.

Necas is gone, unless they are going to put him on the second line at center.

I wouldn’t be so sure Necas is gone…. 1 year prove it deal at center.  If he crushes it, give him his term.

Canes need to get Skjei and figure it out with Necas now that Guentzel is gone. Lot of offense gone, and nothing has come in yet.

Canes announced QOs to:

Coghlan, Necas, Drury and Jarvis.
