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

[stl76]

I didn't say it has no music scene. I said it's not Austin which is probably top 5 in the country. If you really want to debate that I'd be happy to do so. Just let me know.

But I don't think there is a Columbus City Limits.
Or a Midwest x Midwest festival.
Nor does Columbus bill itself as "Live Music Capital of the World" like Austin.
Nor is there a type of music known world wide as the "Columbus Sound"
Nor did you have an exodus of noncomformists that left a corporate music center arrive in Columbus and create a scene that hatched legends like Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Steve Earle, Jerry Jeff Walker, and psychedelic freaks like Roky Erikson and the 13th Floor Elevators.
Nor a blues scene that spawned Stevie Ray Vaughan, Marcia Ball, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Lou Ann Barton, Doyle Bramhall, Gary Clark Jr. and others.
And other acts like Alejandro Escovedo, the Dixie Chicks, B***hole Surfers, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Eric Johnson, Hot Club of Cowtown, Charlie Sexton and one of my personal favorites: Storyville.

And you mentioned 1 festival. Austin has 2 of the biggest in the country as well as probably a dozen other pretty big music festivals.

It's not a slight to Columbus to say it doesn't compare to Austin as far as a music scene. I'm from Boston which once had one of the best music scenes in the world (sadly not any more) and I can tell you Boston isn't close to Austin.

Other than Nashville I don't think you have another city with music being so vitally important to its culture as Austin.

I realize this is a tiny gripe from weeks ago, and you probably only meant cities with an NHL team...but New Orleans, dude. New Orleans.

No deal for NJ. Giving up a former 1st round pick and a 1st round pick for a defenseman who is nearly past his prime. Would be more interested in just cutting out LA and giving zacha, 1st Rd pick, + for panarin. NJ definitely has some intriguing prospects to pull this deal off. It's only a question of if Ray wants to commit to a big money player before hall, Nico, and butcher need to get paid

Devils are the ones who make out like bandits in that trade. Zacha is a bust and a 1st is only a 1st. That's nothing for 2 years of Muzzin who's signed to a cheap deal.

Frankly I don't see why Devils are included in the trade at all. If Muzzin and Pearson for Panarin was on the table CBJ should just take it.

It looks like he's preparing to stay in Columbus

@Maylo can we get a translation?

@Maylo can we get a translation?

Well, it's kinda political... Someone asks Artemii about sanctions, and he answeres, he doesn't fear any sanctions, because he has chickens, cows and a tractor, so he will always have something to eat. Of course, the whole thing is a joke.

“A source”. In order to make the cap work for a likely 9M deal they would have to find a way to get rid of Seabrook with DeBrincat and Schmaltz needing raises, too.

I just don’t see it being likely when he can take 9M to play with a contender, and that’s even before considering the task of moving Seabrook.

It would probably take DeBrincat to get someone to take on that atrocious Seabrook contract.

Maybe Schmaltz, but not DeBrincat. Either way, I just don’t see it as being any more likely than any other destination given the logistics.

 

[Rick C137]

I mean in the article Powers posted a lineup for 19-20’ season that had Panarin at 9mil w/ Schmaltz at 6m and Seabrook still on the team. The Hawks could realistically fit him in without making any big moves, it just depends on if that’s the route they want to go.

 

[haveandare]

I'm going to be pretty bitter if the Hawks and Pens just keep focusing on now and avoiding the future only to completely crap out when their current stars fade, nab top picks in great drafts again and start the cycle over.

Having said that, I'm 99% certain that's exactly whats going to happen.

 

[Sol]

So Panarin isn't joining the Kings yet? What a chump. Hurry up.

 

[Jay haller]

It would probably take DeBrincat to get someone to take on that atrocious Seabrook contract.

There’s a lockout coming and with that compliance buyouts or a completely new salary structure I.e Toronto and a ton of big markets will be pushing hard for a soft cap or no cap at all.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Hawks need to get rid of Toews first as he won't cost a big piece to move in trade

 

[migi]

Hawks could easily (with easy moves) afford Panarin after this season if he signs at $9mil per year. It is just pure ignorance to think otherwise.

Schmaltz is worth just as much if not more than Debrincat.

 

[GoJackets1]

Oh boy... Even more plain old speculation. Nothing more.

Ward, Kruger, Kunitz, and Rutta free over 9 million on their own a Seabrook trade isn’t even needed if anyone would be moved it would be Arty/Murphy

He's really not saying anything of substance. Panarin is probably 'seriously considering' staying in Columbus, or going anywhere else too.

It's been reported he is seriously considering not signing in CLB and wants to play in a big market. Powers doesn't just throw these kind of things out there. There is typically something behind it.

10 million in space is freed up this very off season if Schmaltz and cat both sign around 6.5 it fits one of Arty or Murphy could be moved if the cap doesnt hit around 86 million by the time Cat becomes a RFA

 

[Hawkaholic]

Crawford is also a UFA the year Cat needs a new contract, that's 6mil off the books, find a goalie to sign for cheaper and just outscore the opps every night.

If Crow is still healthy, he's the kind of guy who'd take a team friendly deal to stay in Chicago.

Not true, you’re basing that off the Hawks’ past cap situations. They’re no longer in that type of cap hell.

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

After reading some of the comments today, one thing that needs to be reiterated to non Hawks fans is that Scott powers is the Blackhawks most credible reporter by a landslide
