So 1.35 AAV. Nothing to see here.

Miss this guy

underated panther.

He is a warrior!

 

[Dabeast]

Nice

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I remember him back when he was on the Wolves. If you told me he'd go on to play 450+ games I would've laughed.

 

[Crede777]

He's currently one of the best at what he does (4th line center).

Good physicality, speed, wins face offs, secondary offense, great locker room guy. Basically everything that you'd want from an energy line player. Stick him out there to kill a penalty or spark your team.

 

[Laus723]

One of my favorite Panthers.

 

[WannabeFinn]

I miss him

 

[hallhopkinseberle]

I thought 2.7mil was the AAV

 

[Mr Positive]

this guy brings it every game. I didn't even know he was available. Dang, he would have been good for my team to get.

Sorry, total, I should have put the AAV and the title can be adjusted if someone sees fit.

In any case, big fan of his, such a great 4th line center, faceoff winner, and PKer. He does everything asked of him and scores the occasional great goal.

I absolutely love Dmac. Miss him quite a bit with the CBJ...

IMO he is the best 4th line guy in the league.

35 signed for 3 more years

 

[SenzZen]

Good for Derek.

If he's anything like his Godfather he's as nice as they come.

 

[Kev22]

He is the only former CBJ player that I have ever missed. Do the Panthers want Gregory Campbell? I'd add a pick to that as well to get DMac back. Since the Jackets made the playoffs two years ago and he left, things have went down the drain without him.

 

[Blue Goose]

I might be in the minority, but I think he should be the next Panthers captain (and then have Ekblad take over when DMac's contract expires).

As long as his skating doesn't take a huge dive, he'll be fine.

He'll have an A, no question. I think the C should go to Jokinen, but wouldn't be at all surprised to see MacK get it.
