No way carolina does this

If Carolina could get a little more in this trade, this could be a fantastic trade.

However, Foligno won't be waiving his NMC in order to move from a playoff team to a team in a middle of retooling. It seems foolish to me.

Well it's either Foligno or Dubinsky as both men are making $5mil plus projected as #3-#4 centers in Columbus. Both have the opportunity to move into the top-6 in Carolina, who is close to contending. Also, Sikura is Chicago's #3 prospect (#1 for forwards) behind Jokiharju and Boqvist...and Abramov is Columbus's #2 prospect behind Milano. Plus they acquire a 1st and 2nd Round Pick so it's not like Carolina isn't getting anything.

It’s decent value wise but Columbus doesn’t need d men. I’d have a hard time making this trade if I was Chicago too..... even though the get the best player and trade nothing but picks and prospects.... which they’ll want....
