I'd take Matthew Tkachuk in a heartbeat, who can we give them?

Huby.

His next deal is going to be too much and it’s a tough sell that this core is the group to get the Panthers to the cup. Tkachuk is a top six guy with an edge the Cats can sorely use and he has a scoring touch.

Or maybe I’m just working heel to fire up the fan base…haha.

I like it, then let's make him the Captain. He has the drive and the tenacity to drive a team forward.

Then I would trade Ekblad for Brady Tkachuk. What a combo meal that would be. We would be a rough and tumble team. You're set down the middle with Barkov, Bennett, and Lundell and the speed of Verhaeghe and Duclair would make for an exciting team.

Jonathan Huberdeau, MacKenzie Weegar, Cole Schwindt, and a conditional 2025 first-round pick.

It's a conditional first round so if the Panthers are within the top twelve, they keep the pick. Hopefully, that won't happen anyway. I like Tkachuk. He will drive to the net and bring a sandpaper and grit to the Panthers.

As long as the picks are all 25th or after I’m not too worried about it.

Well a vast majority believe zito got fleeced. Only time will tell but i believe he over paid again. Barkov and hubie were homies i sure hope he didnt mess with team dynamic. And i hope barkov likes tkachuk as they are about to spend the next 8 years together potentially.

Also he didn't even fix the cap situation....

The only way i am ok with this trade is if extensions were going poorly with hubie and weegs

I have a feeling they may have been. Weegar is certainly going to be overpaid on his next deal. I don’t think he would’ve re-signed here.
Hubie probably wanted same deal as Barky.
