Wheeling and Dealing: A Carolina Hurricanes Trade Deadline Primer

It’s that time of year again, and the trade deadline is fast approaching. On (or before) February 26th, the Canes will have to make a decision about that will affect the future and possibly culture of the franchise.

With a new owner at the helm, results are expected sooner than later, and with a bevy of trade-able assets a solid return could be expected. The Hurricanes are currently on pace for a season total of 87 points which, if they do manage to qualify for the playoffs, would be tied for the lowest total for a post-season team since the 2004-2005 lockout.
