No way the Canes don’t match that. Even if it means they trade him going forward.
Not sure how this impacts Tkachuk but at least it doesn’t start with a 9...

A clever way for the Habs to make the Hurtricanes actually think twice about matching without having to give up 4 1sts. But the optics of the Hurricanes losing him for a 1st 2nd and 3rd is also brutal.

smart business move by Aho. There were rumours of the Canes lowballing him and he absolutely wasn't going to get 5 years from them, so he forces their hand. One might think they've learned their lesson from Hanifin and Lindholm when it comes to paying their young RFAs, but apparently not. It's an easy match for them, but I'm sure knowing he's gone in 5 years stings.

Wow, the offer sheet is almost all annual signing bonus. Maybe the canes aren't going to be willing to match the cash flow implications of this deal??

An offer sheet only becomes public if the player signs it.

I think this all but assures Tkachuk comes in under $8.0 unless it is on a +6-year deal, and I don't see that happening.
*EDIT* With this done, I won't be surprised to see Treliving sign Tkachuk quickly.

Don't see how Carolina doesn't match this
At the very least they match then trade him.

Smart move by the Habs. Seems like it could have a chance to not be matched, for minimal compensation.

Yup, Aho was #1 on my list of RFAs most likely to be offer-sheeted. A young #1 center that just helped his team win 2 rounds. That’s what Dundon gets for trying to penny pinch here. The garbage offers Aho was getting had to have peeved him right off to sign a O.S. as soon as he could.

Carolina is locked into one year if they match... presumably they need to match the salary structure as well, which LeBrun has broken down as 21 million in year one...that's what makes it tough to match.
Carolina fans must be in meltdown
