New rumor Panarin will go to EDM to play with McDavid without an extension being worked out
Where in the hell are you seeing this? There’s no way he’d live there for even half a season. Edmonton is in cap hell with really not many ways to get out from under it enough to even fit half of Panarins contract.
EK is at it again
From his latest blog RE: Panarin
“They’re all-in on Ovechkin’s final Cup run.Panarin would give them another elite puck-driver to take pressure off Ovi and Kuznetsov.The Caps are willing to part with futures.”Kuznetsov! Who hasn’t played an NHL game since 2024!
He found an article he wrote years ago, copy and pasted it.

Im ready for an underwhelming trade return.[/quote
Im hoping that its closer to what we got for Miller, rather than what we got for Kreider.
However because of how he publicly put its all out there and how he handles these things, it is definitely a concern. The real issue is that Panarin wants a contract extension, a pretty sizeable one, with whatever team he approves a trade to. However, what makes me more optimistic rather than cynical about it, the teams who are supposedly in on him… LA, SJ, WSH and DET, all have the cap space next year to do it and decent prospects to go after. WSH less so than the others and I dont think they want to split the Protas brothers, I think theyre more likely to trade McMichael.
If drury takes bad contacts for picks, retains money on trades etc, it’ll show me he’s at least somewhat serious about doing this the right way.
This won’t be a proper tear down either. Drury has already said it’s going to be a retool, which means he’s going to add veteran players with some of the picks and prospects he acquires and we’ll be having this conversation again in 2 years when hopefully he’s finally fired.
You guys are impossible to please. The jury just came back.
They’re doing a proper tear down…it just isn’t done yet. They can’t trade NMCS because that’s gets you guys up in arms too
Gorton didnt draft well, Drurys picks are still tbd. Perrault looks the part. Laba was kind of a diamond in the rough as of now. And why do you guys get so upset when he trades picks if he doesn’t draft well?? 🤣
I swear it’s like I’m dealing with children up in here 🤦
You keep saying were impossible to please… when the point thats being made is that it confirms what many have said that this team is/was not good enough to win the Chip. Again, the problem isnt that hes tearing it down now. The issue is that its happening now and not 5 years ago, or even before.
The reason we had a Goodrow contract that was so difficult to move is because Drury made it that way.
The reason we have a Zib contract that we cant move is because Drury made it that way.
The reason we have a Miller contract we cant move is because Drury made it that way. He didnt write the contract, but he didnt have to trade for him.You cant sit here and call us children when you’re playing both sides of the coin whenever its convenient for you. The people who have been wanting a proper tear down have stuck to their guns about it for years, and this goes back to the signings of Panarin and Trouba. They never changed their opinion, win or lose.
