    No. Please share the original reporting and not some hatchet blog.

    I doubt the Rangers trade with us and is this really a need (maybe after Ovi but this season?)

    We’ve all heard the rumors but I haven’t seen anything confirming them yet.

    Unless they’re willing to trade him for Milano straight up, with salary retained, this is a no from me. We do not need to be getting older, slower, and more expensive.

    I have no idea why you guys don’t want him. He’d be our best pointer. The biggest downside for us rn is our lack of superstar that can change an entire game and clutch. He can be that guy

    Seems we need to be building young, no?

  8. CarnaValor

    This is giving me Shattenkirk vibes.

    Remember when none of y’all wanted Hughes and then he totally transformed the Wilds offense ? You have to give up assets to get assets

    You gotta love how these Canadian insider guys equivocate at every turn. Always parsing the language so he doesn’t get held to anything.

    Perhaps wishful thinking on my part but I suspect the Caps are being used as a pawn by interested parties to drive up the price elsewhere. It seems to me that NYR may not be dealing from a position of strength here with Panarin holding all the cards. We would have been in salary cap hell wo the LTIR workaround. With the rule change here, a deal like this becomes a lot more risky.

    I’d really rather not go into a transition period with another aging player on a monster contract weighing things down. Panarin’s game seems like it would age a lot less gracefully, too.

    Then again the alternative seems to be another reclamation project. How many times we going to touch the oven there before we get burned?

    He’s 34, we don’t need another aging forward.

  12. PumpkinBrow

    He’s 34, but plays at a 100 point pace. Kucherov is a UFA next year, and one year younger than Panarin. I guess you all wouldn’t want him, as he is also an aging winger.

    100 point players don’t grow on trees. He would be a massive addition.

  13. ZHicks2121

    I’d prefer to not go after him at his current age and contract demands, but I can like with a move that doesn’t include Hutson, Baby Pro, or Leonard.

    Parascak or Cristall, a first, and then some can be fine I guess

  14. cjnpigs

    No they are not really after him, is the answer to your question

  15. Or PLD coming back will just be our effective acquisition for the year at the deadline. And cost nothing more than the team is already paying him.

  16. Aware-Leading-1213

    All i hear is he wants to go to Florida or California.

  17. MsindAround

    We have to be the only fan base saying no thank you to a player who would have been our top point scorer for the last 4 years. I get it, we are scared, our track record with adding an aging player is awful. Especially if there last name starts with a P. Pacioretty & Panik come to mind. Lets face it guys we need a winger bad. Do you really think guys like Frank or Bovi should be getting top line time?

    We are a team filled with youth, stars on cheap contracts. Bread man is worth it. We have Sonny Milano on our power play tonight for God sake.
