Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part XXXVIII

[duhmetreE]

Why does Florida want Panarin? They just had Huberdeau break out... Who would he be replacing? Panarin is better than Hoffman but there's not a drastic improvement there.

Their issue is not offense. 267 GF with Trocheck missing/hurt for a decent portion.

We'd be going from Names/Vesey to Panarin. That's a monumental difference.

 

[Tawnos]

These are the types of signings that more often than not don't work out. If it's short term fine but it won't and never will be for guys under 31-32.

Well, every UFA contract should be considered to be for diminished value at the end. 6-7 I definitely wouldn’t go. 4-5, which I consider medium term, I’d probably do.

I think Bobrovsky is probably their higher priority.

4-5 year deal with a somewhat reasonable price and I’m definitely on board for that.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I'd take Ferland at 4x5.

 

[Ola]

So what could the price be for Trouba? Pionk and their 1st?

Bob and some defenders and the team should make the playoffs

 

[DanielBrassard]

Unless they love Pionk I can't see it being enough, a team like Philly who needs RHD and has better defensive prospects+11th pick could beat that.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Why does Florida want Panarin?

Their new coach loves him.

Owner(s) are supposedly committing to building a winner and stop being a cap floor-ish team. Quenville was a step in that direction. Panarin has ties to coach Q, obviously. I think they are the front runners.

 

[Tawnos]

Brett Connolly could be an interesting player to watch. He had 46 points this season in a sort of breakout year for him. I don’t think anyone’s convinced, so he might be had for a bargain.

I'd try to squeeze Shattenkirk in there

It's not a position of need. It doesn't make sense in that regard. It'd be an upgrade but that's just poor asset management.

I'd try to push Pionk on Philly.

AV likes him.

 

[duhmetreE]

Chytil for Trouba. ( IF he's not going to be a center )

I know most of the board would be against it.

Welcome to South Florida

 

[Fugazy]

He can have him if it brings us back their pick.

I think the idea would be to sign Panarin and trade Hoffman for a RHD or assets that they could flip for that defenseman. Hoffman is a UFA after the season also.

 

[duhmetreE]

If FLA does sign Panarin, which I dont understand, I'd look to get one of their players.

Hoffman is great on the PP.
Huberdeau is a stud who just broke out.

Chytil + for Huberdeau so they can have their Panarin.

They aren't trading Chytil.

 

[offdacrossbar]

pionk, and this is only my opinion, doesnt have that much value out there in hockey land.

i mean other gms watch the games and look at the corsi.

why would we be moving chytil ?

thats not gonna happen

I would agree. I can't see him bringing back much more than a 3rd from a team that is bad and needs a defenseman.

 

[Matt4776]

I don't want to give Ferland 4 years.

Their coach loves him, he and Bob would make them instant contenders rather than a bubble team.

If he’s not much better than Hoffman, why should we give him $9-10m for 7 years?
