RALEIGH, NC - Don Waddell, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has acquired Toronto's first-round selection in the 2020 NHL Draft (protected), Toronto's seventh-round selection in the 2020 NHL Draft and forward Patrick Marleau from the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for Carolina's sixth-round selection in the 2020 NHL Draft. If Toronto's first-round selection in the 2020 NHL Draft is a top-10 pick, the Hurricanes will instead receive Toronto's first-round selection in the 2021 NHL Draft.

Tell me how to feel as a casual hockey fan. 

1st round pick for a 39 year old player? Is he going to push us over the edge to help?

I may be misreading your post but we didn’t give up a first round pick, we obtained one for taking on Marleau and his contract.

There’s also a chance he gets bought out if he doesn’t want to play with us.

Rumor from Sara Civian

The Canes are trying to move Justin Faulk after contract extension talks didn’t go so well.

The Canes might look to the Capitals unsigned draft pick and impending free agent Chase Priskie to fill Faulk’s spot along with whatever player or pick they receive for Faulk.

I imagine that the first round pick we just obtained from the Marleau trade might be included in a Faulk trade to obtain a higher end player.

Got it, I read it wrong and that makes more sense. 

Yeah just saw on Twitter we are buying out his contract

I think its good to move on. When he's good, he's good. But he's so inconsistent that when he's off, he's terrible.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
