Rumor: Panarin 'reluctant' to sign with Columbus long-term

[CBJx614]

Do you also take into consideration that the Jackets draw viewers from Cleveland and Cinncinati since they are in the Jackets TV market and the only major professional hockey team in state. It was very wise for the FO to link Cleveland and Columbus directly....

When you take that into consideration thats well over 3M people which puts them into the top 5 in the country.

But I'm sure you'll answer with something about that's not how it really works.

Hey what do you guys think about Columbus?

Please stay on topic
This thread has nothing to do with Columbus

Who's ahead of that?

Just wondering, because other places can combine surrounding areas to have large amounts of people, as well. For example, San Jose's population is about 1 million, but the population of the SF Bay Area is over 7 million.

Yeah but how close are those areas to Anaheim and LA? A lot of teams have other cities that are close to pull from but how many of them within 2 hours of the main city and don't have multiple teams for those fans to choose from.

Columbus has the entire state behind it(minus the Chicago, Detroit and Pittsburgh fans) to pull from and no other teams to pull fans away from the Jackets.

Here's the 2017 top 50

Don't forget about the Dayton area which is an hour (or less) from Columbus.

I didn't include them because they weren't in the top 50.

 

[Jackets16]

Yeah, but they are closer to Columbus and aren't that far outside of the top 50, IIRC.

I’m surprised he hasn’t been linked to Long Island. He’d pair nicely with Barzal and would help make up for losing Tavares.

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

How is it more reliable?

Are you serious?

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

A business that is televised chooses geotargets where to expand based on broadcast market size? Tell me more.... that’s amazing

and you know you’re triggered when you start getting into spelling errors

Lol youre the one spinning in circles putting lipstick on the pig that is Columbus, not me

Borrrrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnnnnngggggggg

Shame someone so “smart” bringing in all these “facts” struggles so mightily to comprehend that others can have unlike opinions....

I just recently chose to move back to Columbus from Tampa (and over Chicago). I like Columbus (in regards to best place to live) more than the other 2. Crazy

 

[Jackets16]

Are you serious?

Yes, I am. How does it better show population size?

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Because households and not family size, is a better index of market desirability. If you're a family of 6 it's skews population data which the government has acknowldeged. New home building is also a major factor of economic growth. Population growth in city proper is flawed because it factors in kids. You want and need to track households and not population

 

[mikeyp24]

So because I said the city is biggest talking about population you argue that its weong because it tracks population? And you argue a city is bigger based on TV markets? What...??? Seriously...

Wait let me argue like him hur dur hur dur your city smells ELOHEL

Wahlstrom on the table!?! We can make a deal for signed Panarin and make Barzal look better then JT ever did.

Pretty obvious Panarin isn't signing long-term in Columbus....Jackets have basically only two choice--deal him now, or wait until the trade deadline and hope some team will overpay for him as a rental. Not an ideal situation. But if a guy is determined to go to free agency, there's not much you can do.

I wonder how Panarin will fare with Torts for an entire season next year, given that he's hardly bleeding Columbus blue.

3rd option is treating him as a rental themselves and trying to make a deep run...

RUMOR: Blockbuster Trade Between Columbus, Detroit, and Montreal

I’m sure this doesn’t have any validity to it. But, if this went down I’d be happy !

So, it isn't better when it comes to showing the actual population which is what was being discussed. Thanks.

Yeah. That is why the price should be high no matter what. Columbus keeping Panarin and going to the playoffs is more valuable than a low 1st round pick and a prospect.

No way Bergevin does that
Juulsen and our 1st on top of that, ya not going to happen!!

 

[CupsOverCash]

I really like the Jackets roster, however they have some work to do to catch the teams in front of them. If they believe they can beat the teams in front of them, then you keep Panarin. You add what you can without giving too much futures and go for it. Players appreciate this kind of moves and can help them attract talent there later. However if Columbus doesnt believe they can and can get a huge haul for Panarin now, then you do that. Might be the better move because you can get a couple good entry level contracts and continue to build that young roster. Then before you know it the teams in front of you now are getting older, slower. Take advantage then. That is a beauty of being a smaller market team. You can build your team without outside pressure to win now.
