Makes sense, this summer seems to a bad time to try and shake it up.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

As a Hurricane, .915/2.27 in the RS and 9.14/2.14 in the playoffs. Save for Game 6 against the Rangers last year, you can't complain about his performance.

 

[n8]

He's pretty reliable when healthy.

 

[Fatass]

1 year?

 

[Mrfenn92]

Solid

 

[DaveG]

1 year?

shockingly he's already 35, I get a feeling he's at the point in his career where he'll take one-year deals and probably retire at the end of the season if he ever wins a cup.

Andersen's game has aged really well, but he gets weird injuries from time to time. He's the perfect candidate for incentive-laden short-term deals.

4.75 is such a steal for that goalie duo of him and Kochetkov

 

[FiveTacos]

shockingly he's already 35 ...

Well he was a young starter for the Ducks when they were in the WCF against the Blackhawks, but that was a decade ago. Time flies I guess.

And honestly, that was probably his best shot at a Cup.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

There goes the Oilers chance at a starter

2023 with the Canes has a strong argument as well. 4 one-goal games in the conference final including a 4 OT marathon.

 

[TheBeard]

Hopefully he didn’t hurt himself signing the contract.

 

[Rec T]

Hopefully he didn’t hurt himself signing the contract.

I mean if you're going to get hurt that's probably the best time to do so... a nice long recovery time before you need another one.

/good for Freddie, glad he's still around
//good for Carolina, a very good price & a little production protection if he gets hurt again long term

 

[Team_Spirit]

I keep mixing him with Craig Anderson so he's been in the league for 25 years now

 

[stephenball]

As a Capitals fan, I would suggest he protects himself to make sure he gets that money. Maybe it would be better safe than sorry and he should sit out this round. Please?

 

[Silky mitts]

These contracts for Canes players all look great, build up all that cap room and get rejected by Guentzel and Rantanen, Necas they were like why bother

 

[Zirakzigil]

Pretty solid contract for both

I know you’re trolling, but of those three, only Rantanen wanted out.

 

[poobags]

I mean...eventually Guentzel wanted out. But yeah not at first.

Necas was a rumored trade request going on for a couple of seasons. Necas, however, was totally professional about it and played a great game through it all. Rantanen, though, was the only one whose pouting and floating was all out there for the world to see.

 

[Folignos Helmet]

Never available when needed. Surprised they keep the same approach going in net.

That damn two faced Necas.

 

[NikoEhlers]

Bargain for what he brings. It also doesnt stop Canes from signing another 1a/1b goalie. Or upgrading other positions
