IMO Gaborik was in his 2 40-goal seasons. Didn't help he played in a defensive system.

I know he scored a lot, but it didn’t feel like the game followed him whenever he was on the ice or that you felt something magical would happen whenever he touched the puck. I felt like with Jags that he’d always score. I specifically remember the PP being absurd with him.
Panarin is one of those QB players who can do it all.
Gaborik felt more like a stealth sneaky predator type player.
He seems to be having a career season with us. So many high ticket trades or UFAs came here and just didn't live up to their billing much less have a career season.

to be fair, there should not have been a single concern about his ability right now. i'm not sure we all realized just how good he was, but that shouldn't have been a concern...
I think the real concern (aside from our 2020 draft pick LOL) is how things look 5+ years from now in the last few years of his contract, and we have to give raises to all of our young players...at that point is he still a superstar or does his cap hit become an issue? and if he's good enough the first 5 years, do we not care about the last few cause it was still worth it?
i'd rather stab myself in the eye then rehash this debate again, but point is simply that we won't know if those people were wrong for a few years...

This guy is so amazing that he’s making me want to speed up the rebuild. Come 20-21 it’s time to compete big time. This is the only year we can pass up this talent in its prime. Top 15 player right now

Doubt he gets there, but going to be honest, I had no idea he was this good.
I also do not recall him being such the two-way player. Is that just because I have not watched that much of him in Columbus or did he add that element to his game this year?
he played for Torts so I guess he learned it there but the Hawks always have had good coaches so maybe from coach Q

His goofiness is an absolute joy to behold.*

He might be our first 40 goal scorer since Nash and first 100 point player since Jagr. Crazy to think the Rangers had only three 40 goal scorers this millennium (Jagr, Gaborik, Nash, don't think I'm missing anyone).
It was never about his ability.
whether or not it was the right move for this team is still up for debate.
