Pothier not expected back

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

The Carolina Hurricanes aren't expected to re-sign Brian Pothier.

GM Jim Rutherford wouldn't completely rule it out, but he said that there's only an "outside possibility" of Pothier signing a new deal with Carolina. Pothier had five goals and 15 points in 61 games last season.

In My Words!!!

Essentially the orginal trade that involved Caps and Canes resulted in Bobby Sanguinetti and Oskar Osala

The Original Trade

Canes Receive: Brian Pothier, Oskar Osala, and a 2011 2nd round draft pick.

Capitals Receive: Joe Corvo

The Details

Canes: Pothier (Not re-signed), Oskar Osala (On the Charlotte Checkers), and the 2011 2nd round draft pick (Traded for Bobby Sanguinetti).

Capitals: Joe Corvo (Not re-signed).

The Result

Canes Receive: Oskar Osala and Bobby Sanguinetti

Capitals Receive: Nothing

I think we ended up with the better outcome.
