Player Discussion Artemi Panarin

Bread reminds me of Billy Charlebois - same pretty-boy “look at me” mentality…..

(with apologies to Guido - sorry, mate)

Don’t want to make excuses for a player who should be leading this team and not following but… Strome for all of his faults always knew how to play off Panarin, how to trail the play. Artemi was always going to make a move and slow things down.

It feels like he is missing Strome on some of these rushes where he skates into the zone and everyone is crashing the net.

Unfortunately seems that way, he’s not fast or strong enough to play the system game like the rest of the team so he is left to do his own thing and it’s not working.
 
Teams that get on your a$$ and don’t let you create completely negate him. Then he presses and fans/turns it over. We saw it last year against Carolina and here as well.

He’s too good for this. I was hopeful he’d get that empty netter just to give a little spark.

Lol. If you need Ryan Strome and only Ryan Strome to play decent, then that says it all. Panarin can go play in Anaheim with him.

Time to boo him.

It’s weird because he still gets his points(at least in the regular season) but he doesn’t have even close to the same impact that he did a few years ago. It’s almost like the league had figured him out and he hadn’t really adjusted. Still way too many cross ice passes and he doesn’t shoot when he should and when he dies shoot he misses especially open nets
 
Man this fan base turns on players so quickly. 2 weeks ago everyone was loving his game. I think the Devils are just a tough matchup for him. Also it just seems like he is in his own head now. I have full confidence in him that once he breaks out of his funk, he will be break out. We just need a way to win this game 7 and reset.

Do you know which player I think Panarin really thrived playing with? It wasn't actually Strome. It was Tony D'Angelo. Remove for a second that he was a trash human being and might be the worst defensive d-man in the league, he was incredibly gifted on the offense and I remember more often than not he was a factor in bread's points that Hart-level season.

With that being said, Fox is a much better player so there was no need to keep ADA.

If they got ANYTHING out of him this series they're already getting ready for round 2.

He allows himself to be easy to defend and that isn't going to change. In fact it would only get worse if they move on to the next round because Carolina can actually defend.

And if the Devils got any offense out of Meier, Bratt, and Hischier the Devils are already getting ready for round 2. It goes both ways.

Than what does it say when Bratt has 3 points, Hischier has 4 and Artemi has 2? Artemi makes almost what those two make this year combined (12.7 vs 11.6) and literally if he could even match either of their outputs we’re probably already in round 2.

This is where you say “you aren’t wrong either” :sarcasm:

There are a group of posters that have seen where his game has shifted to perimeter play over the past 2 years and has been vocal about it despite the point totals. This isnt a sudden case of turning on him. It's just that many people are finally seeing and accepting what some of us have been saving for 2 years.

Of course you would like to see production on the score sheet, but that doesn't bother me too much since top players are often neutralized in the playoffs. In fact, I think he has a big game tonight.
What he needs to avoid is turning the puck over at the blue line. He did a better job in game 6. Just get it behind the Debs mediocre defense and forecheck.
Bread isn't a perfect player, but he is still very talented.
Let's also be real about some of our fan base being among the worst at turning on players.
