So, according to Michael Russo, Erik Huala is not happy in CAR:
The Russo-Souhan Show
credit to @Big Daddy Cane and @2Minutes4Surging, listen to the comments around the 40min mark.
Evidently, Haula is none too happy with coach RBA and his usage in CAR, while also still recovering from offseason surgery. He was great to start the season, got tendonitis, was out a while, then back for the past stretch of games while not being as effective as he was in early season and healthy scratched last night.
He's UFA at the end of the season and when healthy, can be a very effective top 9 C. I don't think the Canes would deal him at this point, as what playoff team couldn't use depth at C? But, now I wonder if he plus picks/prospects potentially goes over to another team for a Hamilton fill-in.
Also, on that same podcast, Russo says it seems like CAR now is focusing on RD and specifically not interested in Dumba, so not sure where they really go from there. Sounds like they still do have some interest in Brodin even though he's LD. Not too many RD on the market these days...
