Trading Panarin?

[Vodka Drunkenski]

Is it a possibility? Obviously things changed with drafting Kakko and Lafreniere.

I mean, maybe one day, but definitely not today. I think Lafreniere and Kakko need to become what we all think they're going to be, or at least look like they are well on their way, before we can trade away Panarin.

[Vodka Drunkenski]

I think you trade now when it?s high value, it?s just too much of the same and he?s taking away the ice time that Kakko and Laf need to get better IMO.

[Scott]

no.

 

Talk about premature unless you're talking about throwing a few more nails into the window frame of the window where we become serious contenders that's not even all that close to being open yet.

[Vodka Drunkenski]

no.

Which is exactly why you want to trade him now, if the window isn?t even close to open, not so premature after all

[Scott]

you want to trade a guy who's near the top of the league in MVP voting for two guys who have done absolutely nothing at this point in the NHL. Ok. Good luck with that thankfully I would give it 0.0 chance of happening over the next 5+ years.

[Vodka Drunkenski]

This team is no where near being a contender, he?s about to start the downfall in age, he?s taking up ice time from both lottery picks, his value is at its highest now, maybe trading him is how you obtain another centerman. Not outlandish as you make it seem to be

I say this with all due respect and sincerity: LOL.

If I'm the Rangers I don't move panarin period. That kind of talent rarely comes around. If you want to give Lafreniere more ice team send Kreider packing. He's not worth the contract.

Took balls to make this thread. Don't be surprised if you get one.

Good point, but I’d much get rid of Kreider.

I don?t think you will be able to move Kreider, which is part of the reason I?m talking about Panarin.

This. I would rather look to move Kreider and Trouba. I know Trouba doesn't affect the playing time of the young wingers but it would help to move cap space that will be a problem soon enough.

[Vodka Drunkenski]

Good point, but I?d much get rid of Kreider.

 

I would too but I don?t think they will be able to. I just think you won?t see Kakko and (especially) Lafreniere develop with Panarin here, they are too much of the same, puck needs to be on their stick for them to be effective.

Don?t make me smack you

[Blue Heaven]

First off, their wouldn't be too many teams that can afford his $11.6 million contract.

2nd, Panarin isn't the problem of taking ice time away from Laf/Kakko, its Kreider.

3rd, having a legit 2nd line playmaking center doesn't help their cause either

I dont think Trouba finishes his contract here. As far as I'm concerned, Fox is the franchise defensemen and he's going to get paid. Miller and Lindgren will too.

[Keirik]

Why something so drastic when you can just get rid of the wrong coach and keep our mvp talent?

[4EverRangerFrank]

Trade Panarin?

 

Put the crack-pipe down.

[Vodka Drunkenski]

Great reasoning Frank, glad you took the time

[4EverRangerFrank]

Vodka - trade high now? Waaaaay premature IMO. Maybe a year from now when these young pups gel then we have that talk. Over drinks. A few of them. If we?re on the cusp it?s worthy of a look. But in the meantime, where?s the lighter? LOL

I didn?t mean tomorrow but it?s certainly a conversation to be had by next season IMO.

[Winter]

are we getting Rantanen and Graves back?

[Rangers]

I would too but I don?t think they will be able to. I just think you won?t see Kakko and (especially) Lafreniere develop with Panarin here, they are too much of the same, puck needs to be on their stick for them to be effective.

 

As far as developing Kakko and Laff, get rid of the coach and get one who agrees on developing the kids rather then playing dead Kreider.

Panarin would go on the first line while Laff can taken the second.

I think Panarin needs to be traded 2 years before his contract is over, I don?t see him slowing down as far as the points go. I do hate his game sometime, i think he needs to be more physical. Kind of like Buch showing this year.
