They probably are going to spend those picks. I guess we will see what happens.

The team and organization must be fuming at Rantanen holding out until the last minute to let them know he wasn’t signing. It’s his right to pick but he could have told them much earlier.
CAR should have never have traded for Rantanen in the first place without an extension. That’s the stance DAL took, because Jim Nill is a savvy and experienced operator. The Hurricanes approach of having the team run by the owner and stats wonks is losing its shine.
