@TheAthletic

return is a third and Jonathan Bernier


Now the Canes will re=sign Reimer too!

Really?

Hopefully Carolina has something lined up because Mrázek don't cut it.

canes didnt like the arb. award that he was about to be paid,
3.5mil

What a steal by Detroit. Oilers should have offered better than that.

Seems pretty idiotic for Carolina to make this deal. They had years of terrible goaltending, finally get decent goaltending, and then trade him for nothing.

This.

What magical spell does Yzerman have over other GM's that he never ends up on the wrong side of a bargain?

Don Waddell back to old habits, destroy Atlanta now Carolina. he’s prepping to get Carolina to relocate😂

This is a bit of a shocker. There could me more to this, Personalities involved here could be a factor. Sometimes what comes out in those Arbitration hearings isn't very pleasant from both sides.

If I was a GM of an expansion team or a struggling team in need of a goalie to build around. I would have offered him 4+ That's the skill level we're talking here.

Hopefully I don't have to read anymore absurd ideas or comments about taking a goalie at 6 now!!! Seriously with the average of how many 1st round goalies that have worked out, there shouldn't be a person who thinks taking a goalie in the first round is a good idea at all. We need to focus strictly on the best talent available at this point in time. And I can tell you that a goalie sure as shyte is not going to be the best talent available at pick 6!!!
