Some miracle needs to happen and he needs to be traded. I would even retain 2-3 million.
Give the kids top 6 minutes and pp time. It's not gonna happen with this guy. He is getting older. He can not get to the middle of the ice. He is a disaster when it comes to turnoverrs.

I love how everyone was saying his shit play last playoffs was because he was injured.......
There's no logic in thinking injuries cause you to make shit passes every game, every period, every shift....

I have been beating the anti-Panarin drum since around March of his second season here. Once he got all the Hartemi hype and attention, he completely turned into a selfish, narcissistic liability. Yes, he continued to accumulate points but he completely stopped being a difference maker who showed up and worked. I‘ve spent the past 3 years trying to convince these boards that you cannot win with Artemi and that his regular season production does not matter - he could have 150 assists in the regular season next year and it still wouldn’t matter - if he refuses to change the fundamental way that he approaches the game he will still be a liability. I almost guarantee you can go to the first posts after we were eliminated or our season ended over the last 3 years and find various versions of this exact post from me for each year.
 
Loved what he was under Torts, and when he got here, he’s still a good player but nowhere near the reliable two way player that he was. he’s getting older, wasn’t going to play that style forever, especially when he got away from that structure. Legit mvp candidate his first year here, played d to boot, wish would could turn back time. 😂
 
I wanted to be wrong on him and he showed flashes towards the end of the year, but now even Vally is openly talking about him being an issue in the post game.

We need cap, more speed and a culture change and moving Panarin is a major catalyst to start that.
