Rantanen didn't want to sign there. Don't blame them for flipping him at the last minute for the best return.

Why not do their due diligence to make sure he's actually interested in extending with them if it's not purely a rental trade?

Dallas Colorado round 1 please

I hope not, I'd rather see Dallas, Colorado, and Vegas each take out some trash in rd 1 first (any of Winnipeg, Minnesota, Edmonton, LA)

 

[The don godfather]

Smart move carolina get rid of a guy who is pouting.

 

[MasterMatt25]

The West is loading up

 

[Zirakzigil]

Dallas has like, 10 top six forwards now.

One will be going back at minimum.

 

[ClarkSittler]

And the rich get richer.

 

[SEALBound]

Good lord, if Dallas pays rental prices for Rantanen...

Does that get a GM fired (Tulsky)? I mean that's bad.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

f*** sake I hate the Central. I hope Dalass and Colorado tear each other apart.
Don't sweat it yet, Carolina. The return is going to be huge, and you can use those assets to make the same mistake next year.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Depending on the return, this could be the biggest fumble in the league for a hot minute.

[TheBeard]

Who would it center around? Would Dallas trade Stankoven?

 

[Brock Anton]

For Dallas' sake, I hope he doesn't spend the next month "shocked" at being traded and being bang average on ice.

The poster I quoted seemed to be upset that Carolina was sending Rantanen to a division rival of Colorado's. That's what I was responding to.

 

[CanadianHawks]

What we guessing is the return ?

 

[Gregor Samsa]

With the Guentzel and Rantanen trades I thought the Hurricanes were finally going to stop kicking the can down the road and start pushing their chips in. Would Dallas give up a good player or is this a futures type deal? Hurricanes need to start thinking about the present more to get over that hump

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Who would it center around? Would Dallas trade Stankoven?

Maybe Wyatt Johnson because he won't extend?

 

[SpezDispenser]

Holy crap

 

[A1LeafNation]

Robertson Duchene Johnston
Benn Hintz Rantanen

5 forward PP

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

I bet the return is Stankoven, Bichsel, and picks.

 

[PAZ]

Have to think it's Stankoven/Bourque for it to make sense for Carolina.

 

[LeProspector]

My guess is Wyatt Johnston as the centerpiece

 

[Brock Anton]

Maybe Wyatt Johnson because he won't extend?

A player that might not extend?

Bah gawd, that's the Hurricanes music!

 

[The Great Weal]

My guess is Wyatt Johnston as the centerpiece

Lol he's probably the second most untouchable piece of the organization

 

[KevSkillz4]

Maybe for Bourque, Stankoven and pick?!?!
