Thread: Panarin to Mars
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AG_sweden</b></div><div>he makes points on pp, good for him. He is also one of the best paid players in the NHL. And he can't play anything but pp.
Look at points produced and salary and see what people a head of him makes. And he is on the wrong scale on this list, cost per point.

he is dead weight.</div></div>

Panarin has lead the Rangers in even-strength assists and points every season he has been on the team (even the year Putin was after him). Hardly just a power-play merchant.

I get that he was a disappointment in the playoffs (he certainly wasn't the only one), and he makes too much per year, but calling him dead weight is kind of ridiculous. For better or worse he will remain a Ranger.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SlimTJ100</b></div><div>Agreed. Not reason to rush him. They won’t either. MAYBE by the TDL you’ll see him if he’s lighting up the AHL. Cuylle has a better chance to get a call up sooner, he could make the team out of camp, simply because they could use his game in the lineup. But overall I think that’s why they signed all these older guys so neither of them are counted on just yet.

Zac Jones is what I’m curious about. I thought for sure he would be a regular this year, but then they sign Gustafson so who knows. To me Jones should be a sweetener for Goodrow trade that allows us to get another scoring winger in the top 9</div></div>

I'm curious about Jones too. He'll need waivers next year and would certainly get claimed so Hartford isn't an option. I think they would've flipped him for a pick at the draft if they were ready to move on from him so I think they still have hope for him. If not, Gustafsson is at least a quality defenseman and was really good with Laviolette in Washington last season.
