Panarin is a monster. he's slightly better offensively and his overall game is quite a bit better. it's a little surprising he's trailing by so much here
What makes Panarin better offensively?
Kane is a better power play guy, Panarin is a better 5-on-5 offensive player. But I think people are sympathetic to Panarin, whose Blue Jackets are dead last in PP% since 2017-2018 started. They’re neck and neck offensively IMO.
I'm not sure I buy that Panarin is better 5v5. He wasn't in Chicago and I don't think things have changed much. I know he has better 5v5 rates, but Kane is also getting huge minutes on a poor team like McDavid where it skews his numbers and he has much worse 5v5 linemates and transition defensemen. I'd say they're pretty even 5v5 with Kane the better PP player. At least, offensively
panarin isnt really any different from now to his chicago days. its no coincidence kane's 5v5 numbers fell off the moment panarin left, and kane had his best offensive seasons with panarin.You don’t think things have changed much since Chicago? That’s weird, because I think things have actually changed a whole lot. Kane lost his best teammate and Panarin changed teams. I think Panarin has pretty clearly taken a step forward.
I’m not looking at rates, just points. Since 2017-2018 started, Kane has 76 5V5 points and Panarin has 83 5V5 points in 5 fewer games. Kane has played about 80 more minutes but that can be almost entirely explained by the games played.
Kane does have the inferior linemates, I’ll give you that, but PLD and Atkinson are hardly superstars. And the difference between teammates is not present on the power play where Chicago is slightly better than Columbus but both suck. On top of that, you have to look at the context of the power play, where Panarin has played 359 minutes and Kane has played 437. If you were to give Panarin an extra 78 minutes on a power play where he has scored 4.52 points per 60 minutes, and assume his scoring rate drops slightly, he would have 7 extra power play points.
For me, they’re real close offensively. It’s on the defensive side of things where Panarin really has an edge over Kane IMO.
Panarin for me. Has a better all-around game and the offense is basically the same.

huh i didnt notice that about panarins minutes away from kane in chicago. whats the sample there?That’s interesting, aren’t you the guy who uses WOWYs to say Rantanen sucks?
At 5-on-5, in the entirety of Panarin’s tenure in Chicago:
Panarin + Kane:
54.02% CF, 56.04% GF
AP - 1.74 P1/60
PK - 1.95 P1/60
Panarin without Kane:
0.82 P1/60
49.87% CF, 46.88% GF
Kane without Panarin:
1.96 P1/60
44.89% CF, 50.85% GF
Kane’s P1/60 actually slightly increased without Panarin, while Panarin’s P1/60 dropped by more than half away from Kane. Panarin clearly played a lot worse away from Kane and Kane didn’t take too much of a hit in the points column without Panarin, although his on-ice metrics were clearly affected. I’m shocked to see you say that Panarin leaving obviously hurt Kane’s production, when the WOWYs seem to show the opposite. After all, we all know that in the world of DominicBoltsFan, WOWYs that are void of context in a minuscule sample size are the word of gospel.
You absolutely crucify Mikko Rantanen for having a large drop P1/60 in small sample sizes without Nathan MacKinnon, and cite the fact that MacKinnon has a smaller drop as evidence that Rantanen must be a product of MacKinnon - that he must actually not be all that good. By your same logic, Artemi Panarin, as a Blackhawk, must have been downright terrible, because his P1/60 (your favorite!) fell off a cliff without Kane.
Yet, he moved over to Columbus with no Patrick Kane, and his P1/60 is now 2.07. Even higher in Columbus than it was in the minutes he played with Patrick Kane! (He’s also rocking a much stronger CF%, CFRel%, GF%, and GFRel% in Columbus than he did in Chicago, even in just the minutes he skated with Kane.)
I really want to hear you try and find a way to explain how Mikko Rantanen’s WOWYs completely disqualify him from being elite, but how Artemi Panarin’s WOWYs in Chicago didn’t disqualify him from being elite.
huh i didnt notice that about panarins minutes away from kane in chicago. whats the sample there?
huh decent sample there (way more conclusive than monahans sample away from gaudreau for example). ill have to check what combos those mins were mainly in. so it seems panarin has simply improved his game since getting to CBJ. that makes sense though as his numbers this season are way better than last season so he may just still be getting better.2005 together, 439 just Panarin, 675 just Kane.
For reference, Rantanen and MacKinnon are at 1565 together, 245 with just Rantanen, and 225 with just MacKinnon.
Kane is a better power play guy, Panarin is a better 5-on-5 offensive player. But I think people are sympathetic to Panarin, whose Blue Jackets are dead last in PP% since 2017-2018 started. They’re neck and neck offensively IMO.
