What does a Canes deal look like that is similar to what they got from Florida.
Let's assume there is a 1st and fringe prospect
Who are the equivelents to Weegar and Huberdeau.
Perhaps Pesce as the D.
Who is the F?
Let's say it's still Necas.
Necas+Pesce+1st+fringe prospect

If it was Necas it’d have to be a better D than Pesce.
You’re probably looking at Aho/Slavin and then one of Necas, Domi, Skjei or Pesce, and maybe no prospect or a 2nd instead of a first.
We forget because of the drop off, but Huberdeau was coming off four great seasons and was one of their very best players.
