<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac555</b></div><div>Or you could just move him, get $4M off the books for two seasons, and not have to mess with LTIR. The Canes do not use LTIR traditionally, and the only time they did was for Dougie during the bubble which was a pretty specific situation. I see literally zero ways they go into a season using LTIR. The daily accumulation of cap space is a tool the Canes use every season, and LTIR puts an abrupt stop to that.</div></div>

They're not shipping 4 mil off the books here, since they're retaining. That's the entire problem. Even if he goes on LTIR, with retention, you don't get that cap back.

I understand the Canes don't traditionally use LTIR, but as you said, they have under Dundon. Dundon will spend as much as he can to lure fans back in after the TDA backlash, if it's the difference between being able to bring in a big name like Tarasenko/Eichel/Dvorak (I know Dvorak isn't in the same conversation as the other two traditonally, but my point still stands) then he will do it because it will have the most effectiveness in winning favour back with the fans.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stanley_Cup_To_Manhattan</b></div><div>Could say they want a top 4 RHD after Hamilton dipped. Trouba simply wanted out of Canada. He never mentioned New York or Detroit even as a landing spot.</div></div>

Issue with this is that Carolina have had a very... confusing summer to casuals. Those who know that the Canes organization is based on numbers and mathematics understand why most of these moves were made. That said, Trouba's underlying numbers are... not good.

Bears are better and there's still that hope he can become a top 4 D man, and he would be at FAR less a cap hit.

At this point, moving Gardiner makes no difference. He needs back surgery, and he's an LTIR candidate. He's got no value whatsoever to anyone, he's not a dump, he's not got positive value, he's got nothing. The last time Carolina moved a 1st round pick to leave themselves without one in the first round... I believe was 2011. They're VERY unlikely to move a 1st if they only have one, since their ability to draft is probably the best in the NHL at this moment in time.
