Team: 2018-19 Florida Panthers

Initial Creation Date: Sep. 21, 2018

Published: Sep. 21, 2018

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

IF Panarin gets moved, I think it will either be to Florida or Boston, and I think both teams have pieces that’s can be impact guys for Columbus immediately or in the near future. I’m really fascinated to see how that whole situation plays out as the season gets started.

I think for the Panther’s sake, if they want to contend in a super top heavy Atlantic division, they will need to make an impact addition. I’m not sure this is quite enough to get Panarin, but I think a deal built around Bjugstad and Tippett makes sense.

One issue I see is Florida’s ability to resign Panarin. They don’t have any major money coming off the books elsewhere. They would probably have to move out a guy like McGinn or Reimer to make the money work, which creates a hole elsewhere in their lineup.

Columbus. I love Bjugstad's size and skill. Tippet is the second best prospect and will replace Panarin within a year in Columbus. The second would be a first if this came with Panarin resigning.

Fair enough. Good point about the condition on the draft pick

The Panthers are so fun to watch already with the synergy of the 1st line and top pairing. This would be madness. As a Rangers fan, if bread man doesn't come here, I'd love to see him as a Panther.

You could put Borgstrom between Hoffman and Panarin for a super skilled line, and then have Trochek take the tough defensive matchups on the third line

Love the idea of Panarin playing in Florida but I don’t think Tallon is willing to give up Tippett. He is a pure scorer with potential to consistently get 35 plus goals a season once he is a full time NHLer

Panarin is an elite winger. If the Panthers could resign Panarin, they wouldn’t need Tippett
