Hear me out

canes want a top prospect a 1st and roster player. not close.

lots of teams beat that offer by a lot for karlson even 1 year

I'll be honest, I didn't know what Carolina was asking for. That's a really high ask though I don't think there's any way they get that unless someone is super desperate at the trade deadline. But with Engvall, Lievo and Pickard they're getting a good prospect and two solid NHLers.

With all the **** going on with Karlsson and in Ottawa in general right now, I can't see teams offering much more than 2 firsts.

Lol just terrible. Piles of crap and draft picks for a hall of Famer and a 3 time 30 goal scorer still in his prime

Skinner could be fun but there's no room on the wings. Johnsson deserves more icetime, at least to show if he can produce at this level. And if he can, they're getting 70-80% of Skinner's production at a fraction of the price. Maybe more.

Karlsson is kind of funny. In theory it should take a lot to acquire him but who has the assets and the cap space to actually do it?

The best part here is that with all that wing depth, Hyman is still riding shotgun to Matthews.
