But was that the best deal available? How do you know? So you make Staal happy but not Michalek if he asked for a move back to a specific team?
And Shero's plan we knew it all along he was going after both Parise and Suter, it failed but he tried and he tried hard.
Staal declined a very generous offer from the pens. He made it known that he wanted to sign with Carolina. What team would offer the pens a good deal for Staal when he would walk in a year?
Michalek was under contract. He didnt make it known to everyone that he wanted traded. Maybe it was the best offer, if it was dont make the trade. Teams have a grace period in the summer to go over the cap and they just slashed Staal's cap hit and Sullivan's. it was a desperate unnecessary move to donate Michalek.
