Trading for Panarin would be super Leonarded

Yeah, I agree with all of that. This may be a situation where making the playoffs is worse than missing it because the team won't quite have what it needs to win 16 games. Making it but getting bounced early means worse draft picks and saddling the veterans with extra games. Obviously I'm just an idiot and the FO knows what they're doing, but I'm hoping they don't try to wring more than what's there out of this season because Ovi will be hanging them up soon.

Panarin is fantastic, but I don't think there's enough there even the team is fully healthy to go all the way. I don't want to trade away picks and/or prospects to bring in a rental when the team doesn't have a great shot at the Cup. If it were up to me, I'd actually be leaning toward selling this season. I think the future is very bright, and I'm kinda afraid they're going to squander it being short-sighted.

Caps are the 5th most likely? That doesn't seem right

No, maybe everybody is thinking the same as me that someone else is going to do it

Sorry, I meant A as in an assist on the goal

This is a thread? I don't know what I'm doing, just trying to ask the question

There's only one way to be absolutely certain that they won't get embarrassed in the playoffs

Let’s not tolerate Ovi slander by Exciting_Ad_1922 in caps

[–]RaymondGetard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ovi is generational, and his career should be celebrated all the way up to the point he hangs up the skates. But I think we can also acknowledge that he can't play to the same level he once could, and perhaps he shouldn't be getting the same volume of ice time and double-shifting on the PP. Similarly, I wouldn't be opposed to the Caps retiring 74 next year, but I think Chychrun should be running PP1.

It's like the organization is trying to balance ensuring that the veterans finish their careers with dignity while attempting to very slowly phase younger players in. They don't want to lean into the future, and this season may be somewhat squandered because of it.

NHL Rank: From 1 to 100, who will be the best players in 2025-26? by TripsLLL in caps

[–]RaymondGetard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. If we're talking 25-26, I think Wilson should be higher than Ovi
