The Carolina Hurricanes are the perfect representation of today's society!
By tabling an offer sheet for Jesperi Kotkaniemi, the Carolina Hurricanes have, in a way, made a good move. These have put Marc Bergevin in a bind by offering KK a one-season contract worth $6.1 million. A pact that KK probably didn't deserve according to many.
Also, according to a rumor from Georges Laraque, the Canes would have tabled a contract extension for a few seasons worth $4 million to Kotkaniemi. This would happen if Marc Bergevin does not match Carolina's offer.
From what we can deduce, all this would be a huge revenge from the Hurricanes against Marc Bergevin. Remember that the general manager of the Canadiens had filed an offer to Sebastian Aho in 2019, and that would be why Don Waddell and Tom Dundon would have returned to the charge this year, by signing Kotkaniemi. In addition, the Raleigh organization has totally taunted the Habs on social media, thanks to a slew of posts on Twitter.
Here are a few examples:
Yes, that's quite a home run that would be hit from the Canes, if KK were to officially land in Carolina. Don Waddell's revenge is legitimate, but is it moral?
In today's society, unfortunately, we see way too much revenge and trolling on social media. It's a big problem in our daily lives, so by acting in this way, the Canes have encouraged this process, in a sense. Because of this kind of procedure, social media is seen as hostile ground. It is almost no longer pleasant to surf the net because of the many trolls, which pollute our media environment.
The Hurricanes were obviously interested in Kotkaniemi, certainly, their goal was clearly to upset the Montreal Canadiens' plans... Is it better seen, because it is in a professional context? No, I don't think so... It sends bad vibes to people and in the end, this negative process is just a wheel that turns. When will we get out of it? That is the question...
