Please stop pretend you understand slovak :).
His name is Pánik.
"Pán" means lord or Mr.
Pánik is a little "Pán". The word is sometimes used for a rich men, who do you not like a lot, especially for someone who acts like a bigger boss than he really is.

I agree with Mister as "Pán"
but instead of lord I would say "Sir" is the closest translation to "Pán".

Eller might actually be the weak link on the third line.

Maybe maaco infected me with the hate virus but I didn't like him much this year. Not skilled enough to be a skill player but dude is kind of soft for a grinder.

Speaking of...where is he? Paging maacoshark?

His name didn’t pull up. Is he gonzo???

Panik doesn’t have Connolly’s shot, and isn’t nearly the same level of threat off the rush that Connolly was. When this new third line scores goals, it’s gonna be greasy goals around the crease. 48% of Panik’s career ESG have come from the low slot.

Old 3rd line: Eller plus 6.5m
New 3rd line: Eller plus 5.4m, 2nd & 3rd in ‘20

Probably less skill, more grit, size and D. We will see.

Yeah, obviously, those extra picks also give the Caps some more deadline options to keep tweaking things if they haven’t optimized performance yet. GMBM has certainly stayed active. I like the direction we’re headed in but, obviously, this isn’t necessarily the end of the line either. I could still imagine a third line upgrade for Hagelin, pushing him to the fourth, if they can figure out how to make the cap work- likely a rental with salary retained.

IINM he'll be eligible to return in about 2 weeks.

Whats wrong with this guy? Still 0 points. Where is the issue?
Our system is tough - and some bad play.

he’s been better since he’s been back from injury.

the guy has averaged over half a point per game past few years - he’ll come around.

remember, Kempny took awhile to get going in this system - Siegs looks like he’s finally becoming okay after awhile here - etc. takes a bit of time in this system.

Looks like, that demotion to 4. line ironically was a help for Panik. 6 points in his last 4 games wit ice time hardly over 10 minutes. Some pretty cool moves too.
