If Florida loses round 1 and I'm Giroux

I take a discount and either sign in Tampa or sign a 1 year 3mill deal and join Colorado


And Perron goes to ottawa because they’ll overpay and he has already won a cup

Imagine if Florida Panthers paid

2022 1st
2023 1st
2024 1st
2024 2nd
2023 3rd
2022 4th
2024 4th
2022 6th
Owen Tippett
Devon Levi
Vladislav Kolyachonok
Ty Smilanic
Frank Vatrano

Just to get eliminated in the 1st round by a team that was a consensus first-round exit.


But not as funny as seeing EDM potentially lose to a LAK team that wouldn’t have made the Eastern Playoffs, is without there #1RD (Doughty), #2RW (Arvidsson), pretty much a really really good AHL roster.

I forgot about Ottawa and Giroux

Could see him going there to or Perron

Honestly though if Ottawa could get Fiala on an 8 year deal might go that direction as well

Maybe, but if Bob cant get them out of the first round that could be a problem

As he is basically the one piece that could be stopping them from achieving the post season success they need to be proven legit

As rn if we look at the 2 Kuemper is better than Bob so far and significantly cheaper

Even on his new deal Kuemper probs costs 5.5 vs 10mill Bob.

I’d rather get 7th overall and sign Perron or Giroux over trading 7th for Fiala and locking him up 8 years

Giroux should sign 2-3 years at 7mil in Ottawa 😤😤

And people say my take of Zito being on the hotseat should this happen isnt justified

If they go out in round 1 whats he got left to trade next year.

Then you will have the issue once again of Bob and his 10mill deal

While I dont think Zito will get fired immediately he should 100% be on the hot seat. As you dont spend that much to go out in the first round.

As we all agree this is going full on all in to win now right?


Zito did not sign Bob and as such, I'd say Zito's not on the hot seat, it's not his fault their goaltending sucks and they have too much money stuck there

Was trying to make it more like Bob being there is a problem and as the current GM should Bob struggle it will be up to Zito to deal with it.

As every year since he signed and struggled and people would ask the same old question

Is Bob even good enough anymore to get us a cup

And should Florida lose to Washington that question will pop its ugly head up again

But man how do you even fix it. Bob's contract is almost unmovable and I doubt Florida buys him out (to expensive for them over the long run). Should have went with Lehner as even with his problems still saves yah 5mill in cap

You have to wonder if Florida going whole ham on a playoff run this season was to encourage Huberdeau to stick around, and going out early would have that backfire?

Here I'll rephrase my blurbs principal-point in bold...
Seider for Calder.
Tougher position to play...


I agree completely, but Bunting > Zegras in terms of rookie season

I can see that. Aside from the things I said before (you can definitely leave those out of the discussion, I just think they help evaluate who had the better / "more proficient" individual season), I think Zegras had the better season and he looked better to me. Obviously I've watched Zegras a lot more but I've seen my fair share of Leafs games and Zegras always looked better to me, even when putting my Ducks bias aside (or at least trying my best to do so).

But I understand why you'd take Bunting.

Sorry if I sounded aggressive or ignorant earlier, that wasn't my intention.
