RJ would not be putting up any numbers like he did in Nashville if he was playing 3C here. Heck he was on pace for only 40 points last year playing top 6 centre minutes. Put him in a checking role playing defensive minutes as a 3C and he would be lucky to put up 30 points. For $4M AAV, that's not very good value at all. Not to mention he's not even that great defensively as many people have pointed out.

[Signing] Hurricanes re-sign Jordan Staal
HKSR replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Yeah this is looking promising for picking up a 3C through UFA. -
I know they're pretty different in terms of player, but by the numbers: Hayes: $7.1M cap hit for 3 more years, 18 goals and 54 points in 81 games last season. 31 years old. Boeser: $6.65M cap hit for 2 more years, 18 goals and 55 points in 74 games last season. 26 years old. Just sayin....

[signing] Monahan re-signs with Canadiens.

Doesn't change the fact Carolina had lots of cap space, so if Bear was gonna improve their team (ie better than Chatfield), he would have been on the 3rd pair to start the season. You can read the article I posted, it clearly states how Chatfield was their guy. They liked what they had in him more than Bear. -
Yeah I think cap space is infinitely more valuable this off season than ever before. The cap has only gone up $2m over 4 years. The contracts handed out haven't slowed down, so there's less and less cap league wide to work with. Teams that are cap crunched are gonna pay a huge premium this offseason to unload cap.
