Sujet: Carolina Hurricanes signed Sebastian Aho (5 Years / $8,460,250 AAV)
I just want to comment and I'm not specifically replying to anyone. I'm not a fan of the Habs but this has clearly been an "eat a d*ck" moment brought to you by Marc Bergevin. F***KING HILARIOUS. I don't think Bergevin had anything else planned. He's not the best GM but him and his team likely went through all of the scenarios and laid things out pretty well. I think something must have happened today between both of these teams with regards to acquiring free agents or whatever. Habs knew full well that Carolina is likely to take the 7 days. They knew the right to match compensation they'd be giving up wouldn't break the prospect futures. They knew that this would handcuff them on other moves because they were likely not going to make any other RFA offer sheet moves. They knew that this was the best possible chance at an RFA regardless of whether they want/get him or not. All the other teams like Tampa, Winnipeg, Calgary etc will match in an instant and get rid of whomever they need to to make things work. Winnipeg and Tampa would have been in a spot but an offer sheet for their stars would have cost more in cap/real value and there would have been more on the line in terms of picks to compensate. Hats off to you Marc Bergevin for being D**k of the day and probably the month, and maybe even the whole summer.
