Revisiting the Nino Niederreiter for Victor Rask trade (Hurricanes)

Follow me on Twitter: @BenShelley_20 Follow HockeyBuzz Hurricanes on Twitter: @HB_Canes Roughly two and a half years ago, the Carolina Hurricanes acquired Nino Niederreiter from the Minnesota Wild, in exchange for Victor Rask. Rask, now 28 years old, had spent his career with the Hurricanes and was in his fifth season as a member of the team's forward group. He could typically be counted on for around 15 goals and 40 points per 82 games with the Hurricanes. Rask had a slow start to the 2018-19 season, however, scoring just a goal and six points in 26 games, leading to the trade to Minnesota. Niederreiter, also now 28 years old, was a former fifth-overall pick by the New York Islanders, but ended up being dealt to Wild a few years later. The winger ended up averaging roughly 21 goals and 43 points per 82 games in 434 games with the Wild, before heading to Carolina.
