Why would JT want to play for the Panthers, virtually every one in the businesss has said that CUPS are top priority. The Panthers are as dysfunctional as the Isles and probably less likely to win a cup in the next decade.
They have Tallon back in command, we have Garth. Compare their draft records . . . not even close. The owners got too cute a year ago in re-configuring the roster and now Tallon is rapidly undoing the damage.
Something about 'people in glass houses' comes to mind.
Bjugstad is playing wing this year, not center, and is more effective there right now but there's no comparison to Huberdeau. Huberdeau is a first liner, Bjugstad is not.
Huberdeau, Tippett and a 1st is a fair package if we can't re-sign JT. Then you try to find a stop gap for the 1st line center in someone like Turris. not the best solution but workable while we re-tool.
