Hawks would be stupid to trade for him unless it's a deal. We're not competing this year. Our defense is meh (with some good prospects on the way, but certainly won't make a huge impact this year) and our starter has a whole lotta question marks in terms of his health and his ability to actually play this season.
We're better off keeping our assets and hoping that we land a high draft pick (Jack Hughes, baby!) and try to sign Panarin next summer. We should have the cap space at that point as long as the cap continues to creep up and we can get rid of a few small pieces (like Murphy and Manning).
