Make it happen Blake.

Mother of God!

 

[WesMcCauley]

Vilardi+ for Panarin

 

[Spoiled Bratt]

Panarin pulling a Kawhi Leonard!

 

[timmeh]

What do the Kings even have that they’d be willing to give up? Panarin would cost alot

 

[HockeyDBspecialist]

Man, why are all Russians so difficult to deal with. Just be like Tarassenko and play for your team while being a good team player...

 

[kp61c]

the writer should visit korkino to put things into perspective

 

[absolute garbage]

This is pretty much what I expected. I guess the only surprise is that Florida is not on the list. Russians like Florida.

 

[SpezDispenser]

What kind of ridiculous rubbish is this lol? He only wants to play in 3 cities? Give us all a break. Wow.

FWIW Portzline is the one who started the rumor publicly and won't mention his sources.

It's like the Dubinsky speculation that Portzline started a few months ago.

Maybe it's true, maybe not. But he is the one who started it and is perpetuating it.

It doesn't say that he will only play there, it says that "what if he only will play there" then their trade options will be limited.

 

[Soundgarden]

I hope it's not true, Columbus deserves better.

 

[The Burdened]

god I hope this league doesn't become the NBA

Wants to go play with his buddy Patty Kane.

We’ll offer you Saad.

 

[Bizz]

Panarin has to realize that there's this little thing called a "salary cap" and none of those teams have space.

Vilardi+ for Panarin

IF this rumor is true, you can rest assured that Panarin’s trade value just plummeted and he’ll get nowhere near Vilardi, let alone Vilardi+

 

[Deadpool8812]

Does he have a NTC? No? Well...who does he think he is?

Umm...not true both Chicago and Rangers have plenty of space

 

[Not My Tempo]

Does he have a NTC? No? Well...who does he think he is?

Well he’s UFA at the end of this year so if he wants to play for one of those teams all he has to do is wait

Devils don't have space? Rangers don't have space?

 

[AKL]

He thinks he’s a guy who’s gonna hit free agency in a year. If he only wants to play for 3-4 teams that’s his prerogative, but this rumor will most likely have an impact on his trade value, and when he does make it to UFA, he may not get the money he wants if he’s only talking to 4 teams and only 2 can afford him.

Hawks have 9 million in space (add another 5 for Hossa) will they do it when Cat, Schmaltz will need contracts in the coming seasons probably not but Chicago isnt pressed against the cap at all for once heading into the offseason.
