If we just stopped messing around he’d likely would’ve resigned earlier. Instead it seems his price is going up or he has Interest elsewhere. Losing Gunetzel, Necas, and Turbo would be pretty hard to take.

“The market changed” after having a deal on the table in principle…seems like bad form
Edit: for those talking about the Canes waiting around too long, the last credible information was that Jake’s camp ask was 8×8 and the Canes met that. Any change in direction beyond that is truly bad form.
I’m already prepped for the worst. We have to be going for contingency plans now, wonder what they entail.
He would get my more money through taxes in Florida. And living at a millionaire in Vancouver would be dope. Hard to beat that.
He’s the No 1 avail free agent, I’m sure whatever press is released is a distraction to the opposing fan bases.
Don’t believe everything you read on the internet
We meet his ask and he still likely moves elsewhere. If that’s the case he never really wanted to be here. Fuck em.
Gearing up to be a pretty terrible offseason because apparently most pending free agents already know where they are signing and we haven’t heard any linked to the Canes.
If we lose him because we waited until the last minute to agree to the 8×8 that he wanted all along, that is truly gonna suck.
Front office already upped their offer to his camp once. If he’s determined to draw out the process then let him sign elsewhere, good riddance.
Lock down Necas for the year, extend Jarvis, and then plan for next offseason.
If Jake wanted to stay it would be done. He’s as good as gone and I’ve accepted that. Now I can be shocked and joyous if that changes
He gone
We thought Tarasenko was a Hurricane less than a year ago. Don’t trust anything until you see the player in a jersey. None of this matters
While this certainly could be posturing, it’s certainly starting to appear that almost all big name free agents each year simply don’t want to come to Carolina via Free Agency. Trade may be our best bet
All I have to say is that I’m glad I dropped season tickets going forward.
No, I would rather he not leave.
Should have never gotten to this point. Arguing over a half million or a million for a true top line guy is amazing. But everyone loved the new golden boy GM….
Prime example of why DW left. If you want the big names, you gotta pay them what they want. For all good Dundon has done, it’s bullshit like this at the last minute that’s ultimately going to doom this cup run. Hardball works with bottom 6 guys. Not elite talent. Now we won’t have him and be stuck with the bread crumbs again come Monday.
Great. Probably why Necas to Columbus fell through too, he must be the backup plan if Guentzel leaves. Because there’s nothing a reportedly unhappy player loves like being the second choice. This is looking bad. I hope I’m wrong but yikes.
Yeesh. What makes so many free agents get close to signing here and then change face as soon as a deal gets close to being done? If we end up losing in a race to sign guentzel, we need to ask some questions lol
I appreciate what the front office has done these years, but when you have the biggest fish on the market in your hands you have got to be a bit more aggressive with this approach. It will be a huge disappointment if he goes to another team on the East if it’s because we were waiting too long to make a push
From being really excited yesterday to disappointed today what a turn of events in less than 24 hours lol
