Confirmed with Link: [COL, CAR, CHI] Rantanen-Hall to CAR, Necas-Drury-25 2nd-26 4th to COL, Chi 25 3rd to Chi (Ret 50% on Mikko)

Unless he loves Carolina, I don’t see why Mikko would re-sign with them without at least testing free agency. Money appears to be Mikko’s priority and Carolina has a reputation for not being huge spenders.

With that being the case, he’s almost certainly going to get higher offers in FA and there’s no reason for him to rush to sign.

Apparently the facilities are kinda bad there(rated one of the worst in the league )and the city is boring.

Mikko will pass. Especially after this bad start. If he doesn't get going soon, no way he stays imo.

What will they have to show for Necas, Drury, and two draft picks? Two months worth of Rantanen and a futures package in a year they're supposed to compete for a cup?

That's a fireable offense.
I am not so sure they couldn't salvage it to some degree. If they retain another 50% on Rantanen to $2.3M, even less for deadline cap almost every contender could fit that in. Even as a pure rental they could get a 1st + + or up to 2 2sts from a team going for it all looking to make a splash as Mikko level players dont usually come available often even as a rental.
