So you were celebrating when Saad was traded for Anisimov and Dano too? There's no guarantee the Hawks could have signed Panarin without making promises on April 2015.We already know the outcome of the trade. It ****ing sucked.
I knew at the time how much it sucked. It boggles my mind how many here were defending it at the time. Not trying to be all "I told you so" but just saying, there is really no denying it. The trade was a big fat L.
I agree ... the straight up trade for Panarin for Saad and Forsberg looks to be disaster, unless Panarin leaves CBus for nothing next year. However, are you factoring in how we got Panarin in the first place and Anisimov? Like I said, there are a lot of moving parts to the 3 year Panarin / Saad saga.
