The Canes have made some pretty dumb moves in the last decade and some very smart moves.
A lot to do with money and not wanting to pay their players even fair market value. They did trade Hanifin and Lindholm for what amounted to be a bag of pucks in the end.
Kotkaniemi was one of the worst offer sheet signings ever. They gave up a 1st and a 3rd plus a 8 year contract to basically a 4th liner.
Necas is really good. And only 25. These are the swings you need to make as a organization.
