The Carolina Hurricanes are looking to acquire a first-line caliber forward that can play alongside Eric Staal.
Staal has reached the 70-point mark for seven straight seasons, but he's capable of doing more if the Hurricanes manage to surround him with more talent. One interesting possibility is his brother, Jordan Staal, who the Pittsburgh Penguins might be open to trading. Jordan is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after the 2012-13 campaign and the Penguins might move him for cap reasons. It's worth adding that the Hurricanes are open to having Eric shift to the wing if they end up acquiring a top line center. May 4 - 9:56 AM
