Pre-Game Talk: The 2019 off-season thread Part 4: Last Thread before the madness starts

[BabyBennettov]

The Isles are all over this, yet IBN doesn't say a thing...

GR has also been very quiet...

As I've said, not buying the smoke.

If we get Bob like it seems, we win already. Panarin was a luxury from the beginning.

 

[Crossbar]

Connolly won't happen if Bread does.
Maybe, with the taxes and all, you know, maybe 13 is what it'll take for them to beat our offer? Maybe Bread's agent is seeing if he can get DT to panic and up his offer. It's not yet midnight, nothing is written in stone yet

Speaking of stone, we don't go from trying to acquire Mark Stone to ending up with Brett Connolly.

 

[Gentle Man]

Time is ticking

New-York media doesn't think Panarin will sign in Florida, Columbus just offered 100M over 8 years to Artemi... Per Seravalli on Sportscentre right now.

Wont matter, he doesnt want to be there. CLB posturing for a sign and trade, waited until last hour.

[Panthers Propaganda]

Yeah, but if Panarin wanted to stay with the CBJ they wouldn’t be in this mess. This is clearly a where he wants to live and play scenario.

 

[RainingRats]

CBJ is doing this for the fans. “We made a serious effort, blah blah blah”

Literally every free agent is leaving the team. They want to show the guys left its not about money commitment from ownership.

Feel bad for them but they knew the risks

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

I’d rather Anders Lee tbh

At what cost?

 

[HockeyRulez]

Yea idk about Connolly. He’s a 3rd line player

 

[Haj]

Panarin isn't a luxury.....our division is stacked and we need an elite talent like him just to compete.

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

At what cost?

I think he was making like 3.75 or something, but wouldn’t mind making an offer somewhere around 6m or slightly under. Anything more is a little much imo but he’s a very solid top 6 winger.

 

[MintyFresh88]

So, anyway...which UFA Dman are we getting tomorrow?

 

[Egblad]

One thing is absolutely certain. Panarin has everyone by the balls.

Honestly just ready for this Panarin stuff to be done so life can resume.

I think that would be a fair price

 

[Bure1096]

Sign and trade! Sign and trade!

 

[Ghoste]

Just got home, trying to catch up. So maybe Bob, Connolly, and Stralman? Doesn't really get me fired up but what can you do?

Slim pickings. Hainsey? Wouldn’t be surprised if we wait to the trade deadline.

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

I’m weary on Stralman as he’s 32 coming back from injury and by all reports had a down year. But for a fair price I’m willing to give him a shot.

It would certainly fall flat considering the hype the organization has been producing for the offseason. I wouldn’t consider that haul as one for the ages.
