After months of speculation the Carolina Hurricanes and Philadelphia Flyers have finally completed a trade. While this wasn't the long rumoured Tony DeAngelo trade, it does include the rumored piece of that trade. According to Frank Seravalli the trade breaks down as follows.
By the Flyers buying out DeAngelo the Hurricanes were able to save over a million dollars in valuable cap space, something that gives them a significant edge. It's unlikely the NHL will look into this deal, but when all is said and done, the NHL should have never turned away the Flyers and Canes initial deal.
