Hi all,
We've spent a good time looking at all the bad decisions by management...and opining how we would have done better
Let's turn it around and think where the management has gotten it right and we got it wrong. I have three cases I can think of:

Let's turn it around and think where the management has gotten it right and we got it wrong. I have three cases I can think of:
- Barkov Selection--I was so furious that we did not take one of Jones and Drouin...7 years later, well Barkov is the best player in Florida Panthers history and the heart of our team. Jones would have been nice but clearly Barky-Ekky>Jones-Reinhart
- Signing Acciari--I was annoyed that we locked up 1.66M on a 4th liner when we needed middle depth; well, Acciari has been our middle depth and our most efficient 20 goal scorer.
- Knight Selection--A bit too early to tell, but I initially thought this pick made absolutely zero sense. Why spend a mid first rounder on a goalie when signing Bob? Well, it looks like Knight is the real deal and also that we can ease him into play, while giving substantial depth. On a cap management perspective, I am not too worried about having another Reimer debacle, because we know that Bob-Knight will (most likely) be our pairing in the future in 4-5 years.
