What I'm sort of worried about is the Canes FO panicking and way outbidding for a couple of players because a bunch chose to leave. That can sometimes happen in free agency.

IDK they would probably die on their sword before panicking and overpaying (longterm) for a FA.

I could see them overpaying in the short term like Orlov again.

I'm not totally sure how NJD is going to make all of those rumored moves without trading Mercer.
they have 19 mil in space and Pesce, March, and Dillon eats almost all of that. add in they have only 8 million in space for 25-26 with a the young RFAs needing money.

$19m in space on CapFriendly, but pull Hamilton off of IR and it's $10m. Then $6m for Pesce goes to $4m... with Mercer still to sign.
19 million in cap space

we are getting played left and right

Settled with Guntzel for 64m and heavy bonus for him to take about he same money in TamperingBay
After taxes it's $3M ( more considering the possibility of him getting another contract in year 8) than what he would have gotten here over the life of the contract.

But its more or less what he signed for with an extra year 500k a year.
If I am interpreting cap friendly correctly, Pesce takes a big hit playing in NJ.....NC would have been much higher (presuming he got the same offer which of course didn't happen):

would depend on the bonus structure. If NJ is giving him a contract that's almost entirely SB and ours was base salary the jock tax bullshit would negate that and then some.

Ok, you don't like the guy's negative posts but this is the 2nd time you've lol'd his stuff this AM. That's not cool.

Some of your stuff is off the shelf Canes positive and then often negative on others posts. Come back with a reasoned answer versus being a keyboard warrior mocking someone.
