Oilers decline both

I think if the Hurricanes move Pesce it will be to gain a significant offensive threat or to find the defenseman that replaces him in the coming years. Foegele, Ceci, and Bourgault are not that.

Flyers decline

I'm not even a Canes fan and I can tell you that deal is not good for them.

Flyers could find a better package elsewhere.

Canes laugh at this until blood starts pouring out the nose. Foegele and Ceci are cap dumps. Bourgault and a 2nd isn't even pretending to be close. Pesce likely starts with Bouchard + 2024 1st. There's no reason for a team like Carolina to move a core piece so it's going to cost something uncomfortable like that.

Why would either team do this?

Completely agree. I would love to have Pesce, but I don't think he gets moved

Flyers won't get more than this if they trade konecny...you're basically getting 3 firsts

That’s a late 1st in a weaker draft, 2 solid prospects, a 3rd and a cap dump.

The 3rd is to pay for the cap dump.
So it’s TK for a late 1st and two decent prospects.

Let’s not act like everyone else can offer just as much here. Multiple teams will be in on him and the flyers reportedly want 2 firsts and multiple prospects and according to Lebrun are accepted to receive at least 1 to 2 offers that are close to that this summer. If they hold him til the deadline he would become the premier deadline trade to someone and they can easily ask for more for him.

The Foeg-daddy. More running it back.
