Winnipeg says no.

Winnipeg want Pesce LOL. Carolina said he was untouchable. Carolina say no.

All in all, this is pretty bad. Gardiner is worth a fair bit and has probably been Carolina's best defenseman this season so far (yes 3 games) Skjei won't be picked over Bean and Staal isn't a cap dump. We do not need Ristolainen, Laine or Murphy. We have a stacked defensive pipeline. Barkov is the only one here that makes any sense to target. But... maybe not.

Your team would be so much better without the Laine trade. That 2nd line is overkill.

I had to lol
