Michael Bunting has signed a new contract with the Carolina Hurricanes.

Wow, great deal for CAR in my opinion!

We have Matthew Tkachuk at home

I think it’s $4.5m

Great contract. Middle 6 forward.

Now that's a contract the Leafs should have fought harder to match.

I don't hate this. Maybe a little high on AAV, but it's short term that you cannot hate it

We get to finally see what Bunting has when he isn't riding Matthews and Marners coat tails.

Common Leafs L.

Sheeeeesh

Now he'll be playing with Aho and Jarvis, not much of a downgrade.

Also crazy that Toronto couldn't match this.

he won't perform in the playoffs idc

Will he be able to draw penalties now that he's out of Toronto?

Best to luck to Bunting, I wonder if his reputation will follow him to Carolina.

Loved him in Blue and White, but it was time to move on. I'm sure he'll do well, and Canes fans will love the guy

Carolina needed scoring, but I"m not sure if Bunting playing his best in the playoffs.

Loved bunts , can’t believe the steal CAR got on him

Sneaky good signing for Carolina, decent AVV. The guys a catalyst 💥

I realize they need to get meaner and grittier...
But Buntings stats are inflated because who he got to play with.

Who he is going to get to play with on the Canes is that much of a step back from Toronto

Who he is going to get to play with on the Canes is that much of a step back from Toronto

In a sense it is. If its Aho and Svech, its still one less quality passer.

I mean both of them are quality passers

Love this deal, and as much as he's hatable oh boy it's gonna be fun having him on the team. We get pushed around a lot so maybe he'll be a force who pushes back. I would've liked a slightly lower cap hit but it's an fine contract. Welcome to the canes Bunting,
