As for the Canes, if they deal him again we’ll have a pretty clear measure of how badly they got screwed. Odds are low they’ll get a PPG forward, a #3C, and 2nd for Rantanen now.

Friedman reported they offered him $100M over 8 years.
He wasn't taking that in Colorado and wanted to get paid. Not sure why they thought he would take a discount to stay in Carolina.
Now Colorado has a guy producing at the same rate for half the price, and filled a hole on the 3rd line and defence.
