Orlov to Carolina! (and Bunting)

[cmaleski2]

The Orlov signing frees up the Canes to trade Pesce or Skjei, free up their cap space and do something else, plus add assets in the trade.

Two years at $7.75m per! Biggest fish landed!

Didn’t see this one coming.

Two birds with that stone ... adding a really solid PP2 guy who's good in transition AND putting a dagger in that dumb deal to bring DeAngelo back. Or at least I hope this kills that deal.

 

[CanadaCanes]

Also could set up a big trade of Pesce or Skjei for forward help.

I’m in total agreement with that! They don’t need or want TDA. Let’s hope that goes away.

I suspect this will prove to be the case ... but who ever knows with this bunch. They've been happy to stockpile quality D in the past.

Orlov will wear #7, the 17th in franchise history. Brendan Smith was last to wear it.

 

[Pucking Lamplighter]

To me, #7 will be Niclas Wallin's number until Orlov tops it.

Yeah, I watched that happen from the 5th row of 110. Still can't believe it. He more than made up for it though.

We won the game 7-2, anyway. (I did look it up to make sure.) All's well that ends well.
