So they ll keep rolling three goalies. Interesting

 

[Gil Gunderson]

That’s a pretty high cap hit.

 

[DaveG]

Holy f*** if true. That's about 2m a year less than I was expecting

 

[BonMorrison]

But Kochetkov?

 

[DaveG]

That’s a pretty high cap hit.

3.5... for a legit #1?

 

[innitfam]

Probably 2 years, maybe 3. Let Kochetkov cook in the AHL for 1 more year. Let Raanta go next offseason.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Good deal for us

 

[Duck Off]

that's a great deal for Carolina if true

 

[Merc29]

He’ll be on IR by November

 

[Cynick]

Dammit. Was hoping Ottawa would grab him.

 

[DaveG]

But Kochetkov?

Surprisingly still is waiver exempt so he can play in the A as needed.

Yet another player taking less because they know the Canes are close to winning it all. This is an obvious pattern.

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Ranta and the wundekind as well ? Odd

Was this meant to be a joke.....?

 

[CupInSIX]

That’s a pretty high cap hit.

something's pretty high

 

[Aashir Mallik]

As long as he can stay healthy, he does well in that system so it should be a good signing

 

[Tryamw]

7m for the 3 headed monster.. (Didn't say he was all that scary)

 

[Gil Gunderson]

3.5... for a legit #1?

I guess I’m weary of his injuries, age, and playing behind one of the best defences in the league.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Solid deal wow

 

[Tryamw]

I guess I’m weary of his injuries, age, and playing behind one of the best defences in the league.

Still less then last season IIRC.. thought he was at 4.5

 

[DaveG]

I guess I’m weary of his injuries, age, and playing behind one of the best defences in the league.

Trust me, having seen him here the last couple years my only concern there is the injuries, and we have one of the best goalie prospects in hockey right now that's waiver exempt for one more season if needed.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Seeing the Korpisalo contract, this is laughably team-friendly, but yet again, players clearly want to stay in Carolina.

 

[Stickpucker]

Holy f*** if true. That's about 2m a year less than I was expecting

Prorated for the 30 games he will miss
