It’s just feels like Brady or Brett is gone via trade. Either one would fetch us a 80 point guy. 

One is probably gone to get Karlsson if the Canes are really in on that deal. The other will be gone for scoring.

I'm not a fan of adding both Orlov and Karlsson. 

I think Skjei has grown into his role and developed a lot more than Pesce. I believe Skjei is a legitimate threat as a scoring blueliner and his confidence is high after the season he had, while Pesce is a consistent defender. 

My opinion: keep Skjei, trade Pesce, got Orlov, get TDA and the D is set.

Orlov was signed to play on the 2nd D pairing.  I have little doubt about that.

I don't think the Canes are going to meet Pesce's ask with regards to term.  I am a big Pesce fan and he deserves his payday and long term guarantee that he desires. 

Everyone is different in their thoughts when it comes to these things, I suppose Pesce at his age wants that term.  It's not a Raanta or Andersen position where they are on the back end of their careers.

The Canes are known to be prudent with their contractual decisions so both sides just need to respect each other's views.  It will be tough to see Pesce in another sweater, but I think that's what will eventually happen and most likely in the Western Conference.
