Description

The Panthers are rolling and Connolly isn't playing. There are some rumour that he can be moved. The Predators could use a middle 6 goal scorer (Tolvanen is not ready IMO), someone they lost in Craig Smith. The return can be Jarnkrok or Grimaldi + prospect.

Panthers:
Lost a player, who barely played this year. Got a player, who barely played this year, but on lower salary + solid prospect.

Predators:
Lost a player, who barely played this year, and a solid prospect. Got a guy, who was underperforming this year, but with a new opportunity and more ice time can be decent goal scorer.

I'd say that Panthers are the winner of this deal, but if the Preds want a change, they have to sacrifise something.

Connolly and Jarnkrok have essentially identical production rates over their careers.

Jarnkrok
82G
102A
462 Games Played

Connolly
98G
90A
500 Games Played

It's basically a wash. I think as a 1 for 1 it's pretty even. Nashville may need a shakeup but getting Jarnkrok back into the lineup will accomplish that since he hasn't been in it most of the season due to injury. I don't think Nashville would add Pärssinen since he looks like a diamond in the rough.

Jarnkrok is expendable, but Connolly doesn't do anything to help the Preds. I'd rather just get a picks/prospect return for Jarnkrok.
