The Carolina Hurricanes aren't expected to re-sign Brian Pothier.

GM Jim Rutherford wouldn't completely rule it out, but he said that there's only an "outside possibility" of Pothier signing a new deal with Carolina. Pothier had five goals and 15 points in 61 games last season.

In My Words!!!

Essentially the orginal trade that involved Caps and Canes resulted in Bobby Sanguinetti and Oskar Osala

The Original Trade

Canes Receive: Brian Pothier, Oskar Osala, and a 2011 2nd round draft pick.

Capitals Receive: Joe Corvo

The Details

Canes: Pothier (Not re-signed), Oskar Osala (On the Charlotte Checkers), and the 2011 2nd round draft pick (Traded for Bobby Sanguinetti).

Capitals: Joe Corvo (Not re-signed).

The Result

Canes Receive: Oskar Osala and Bobby Sanguinetti

Capitals Receive: Nothing

I think we ended up with the better outcome.

      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.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      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.
