Rumor: Carolina had a deal in place for Gibson at the deadline, but backed out

[SENStastic]

Heard they backed out because they wanted Anaheim to retain 90% of Gibson's contract and the league reminded them that 50% is the max.

That's really cheap of Carolina, and pretty unreasonable frankly. They should've asked for 80% retention tops

Why does anyone buy this bullshit? "X deal almost happened" F that S.

Because Holland is stuck in the past and still thinks he's GM of the Red Wings and Anaheim is his biggest enemy so he won't trade with them.

If Anaheim took back Koskinen and Kassian along with the 22-1st and Broberg I would be loving it

Gibson is at risk of rotting away. If he wants to win at some point during his best years, he should press the issue with Anaheim.

Carolina needs someone like Gibson.
