In the parlance of Gerbe, Panarin is capital "E" Elite.

Reinhart will never be as good as Panarin. Elite wingers, while easier to acquire than centers or #1d, are still difficult to come by

I agree, but your also giving up on a top ten pick very early, and giving up another first round pick. I don’t think the organization is ready for or can afford, to give up that much top end youth and draft capital for a vet signed for another year

The real question is how high does jack climb now that we actually have some talent playing with him.... for 10 mil a year he needs to be min. top 7 imho.

From the guy that kept rooting for the Sabres to win and fall out of the top lottery position, when the team was a pile of poo.

That was Brilliant
All that winning was gonna carry over , right?

Brilliant

Now you can root for dahlin for the next 15 years

You're welcome


As for your late addition:

I'm not in favor of anything burning.

Just wanted my favorite hockey team to have the best chance of winning moving forward.

I would never do it without an extension. Panarin wants to be on one of the coasts anyway, so it's probably a pipe dream. But with an extension, I would have no problem doing it

ROR is not a top 20 center? Weird. I thought we were crazy for trading him.

They cut funding for clowns that suffer from PTSD. Quite unfortunate we dont do more for veteran clowns.

I thought it was weird that a guy like Logan Couture is not listed here...

Giroux not listed but I think he plays a lot more wing now.

Toews not listed.

Ror is and always has been overhyped. His hunch back style play will limit his time due to continuous back problems, I’m a bartender I see this kind of problem all the time.
