Frozen Failure
They got business in my hockey, and I hate it.
I dont know if Panarin is the right pickup for Dallas. I would rather get two guys over Panarin, but who knows what's going to happen...
Friedman: "Do not count out Dallas" on Panarin

I have no idea why Dallas would be looking at Panarin, nor why the breadman would go there, the Stars were an absolute mess last night and have been trending that way most of the season.

He seems to want to stay on the east coast, as far as I've heard.
He also wouldn't be quite the marquee player here that he could be elsewhere, which matters for a lot of players.

He said this himself, in English, after he fired his Former agent: "I want to test free angency."
Well, if that's a reason for him not to sign somewhere then maybe its better for Stars that he doesn't sign with them. He would look pretty dominant alongside Seguin.

None of the insiders believe that though. They know there's a good chance he goes to Florida at the deadline to get 8 years.

It's all speculation, I'm just regurgitating what I've seen. I don't think anyone besides Panarin himself and maybe his new agent know what he's looking for.
He’s already the marquee player on CBJ and it doesn’t mean jack shit to him. He wants beaches and models and that’s it
Well he could get a max contract with CBJ. Unfortunately we can’t do anything about geography

I remember when Friedman said we were a stealth team to land Erik Karlsson too. A week later we emerged as the front runners to land him and eventually we ended up 2nd to the Sharks who ended up getting him obviously...never know I guess. Nill targeted Tavares and Karlsson last summer. Desperation could trigger a trade for Panarin but that's one pricey rental...

Where Is My Mind?
Not sure if over a half empty arena would deter Panarin from signing there. He would bring in some more fans/viewers of course, I think.
Sure. I'll believe it when i see it. Dallas seems to always be "in it" but never does anything.

The closest Dallas will get to Panarin is the frequent appearances he makes on Radulov's Instagram live videos.

Lol what? Have you been living under a rock the last 5 years? Where'd Seguin, Spezza, and Radulov come from then?

How could Blake have known?
Dallas has to be one of the most directionless franchises in the NHL, since Nill took over they have largely lived in the black hole, finishing with around 90 points in three of the five seasons (and on pace for that this year).
The worst thing in the world in this league is to be a 90 point fringe playoff team every year, if Nill isn't going to rebuild he might as well just go for it and hope Panarin pushes them to contender status, there really isn't any downside to this.
