Canes GM Waddell: "Jesperi Kotkaniemi accepted our offer. He wants to come to Carolina. He sees the core we've built here and he wants to be a part of that. We're proud, but there's still a waiting period. When you make an offer like that, we saw a vulnerable position.»
Con't: «The offer, with the compensation and the core we have, we realized that it was the best chance we had to get the player.»
