Panarin has been great. His contract has a long way to go before anybody can deem it good. The first year especially was never the concern and still isn’t. The reactions to this post is why I stopped posting here. The comments about my thinking when I wasn’t posting is why I stopped posting. Really the hypocrisy of the moderators in the political section and the banning and infractions I received there is why I stopped posting.
Much like hanks last contract, it’s the yearsat the end that will determine its worth. At least to me. Those years should be prime contending years. Hopefully panarin is still living up to his salary then. It will be a shame to see younger developing players sent packing because of cap restraints. Doesn’t matterif panarin is playing at this level. 5 years from now we’ll see.
