Kucherov signed it before the season started. What he did this past season is irrelevant to his contract. He also had 1 year of RFA left.You think it's fair value for Panarin. That doesn't actually mean it's true. Don't assume your opinion is a fact. You've become so hellbent on Panarin that you've become oblivious to certain facts.
The Kucherov comparison isn't accurate either. He was the best player in the league last season. Panarin half assed it during the playoffs last season. He coasted. His lack of back checking led to goals against. His effort can be mediocre. Go on the Blue Jackets board and look at their GDT's.
You're not going to convince the Anti-Panarin crowd that signing him to the largest contract in our franchises history is a good investment.
You should look in the mirror. You're the one hellbent and oblivious.
Someone should point Gorton to that GDT ASAP
