No reason for Panthers to consider moving Bennett, especially with how great of a contract he has.

I think Florida would trade reinhart before they trade bennett

I can't speak for Panthers fans on what they'd want, but Bennett has become a hugely important part of that team and is on a great deal. I would think it would take significant overpayment to get Zito to consider it, and not just a collection of spare parts.

Florida wouldn't want to weaken their team now that they're contending, do you expect them to start a rebuild next year or something?

There’s several options available to Florida in the off-season, and no big names needing to be re-signed. The biggest names are Tippett, Lomberg, and Luostairainen.
they’ll 7 mil to mess with and maybe a trade or two…but not this one. Bennett has been terrific while here and has great chemistry with Huby. Lundell could push him to the 3rd center spot, but…awesome!

NYR shouldn't pay this
Bennett (+) was acquired for 2 2nds,
NYR isn't paying 2 1sts

The ELC/youth potential value is there from NYR side but Bennett provides a rare skillset for FLA down the middle.
Barkov, Lundell and Luostarinen aren't really overly physical where Bennett is a pinless grenade waiting to explode on opponents.
With him genuinely loving it here in FLA already and the noticeable increase offense (I know he won't stay at PPG), it's not something we want to do.
Maybe in the 2023-24 off season when Huberdeau and Weegar are due, as well as Lundell possibly ready for a full time 2C promotion.
Thanks but no thanks.

Puck Off!
Is Krav even worth a first anymore? He's done nothing but disappoint thus far. His value at he time of his draft isn't the same as it is now.
Bennet's value has risen since his trade.

I don't think Bennett does much for the Rangers, but your rationale is off. Strome was acquired for a guy who is no longer in the league. Does that mean that's Strome's value?
i wonder, what philly would want for brassard
brassard and 7th for zib and a 2nd sounds like a trade i would make.

What Florida paid means nothing next summer.
Not every player walks free to NYR.
Also why is Kravs value a 1st?
i should have kept it to myself. now the price for brassard will go through the roof.i wonder, what philly would want for brassard

Krav was a top 10 pick, just a couple years back, talented and gifted, and been productive vs men in KHL.
Vultures circling, hoping to get him cheap because of the demotion kerfuffle, will be disappointed.

who has Krav disappointed?
stats watchers in distant time zones?
he's an uber-talented stud wing,
any one who watched his 20 NHL games last spring saw that,
and his historical age-comparables in KHL are some great NHL'ers
some day we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny
This would be like dealing for an inside straight, but
- both teams are cap strapped/have rigid lack of options limiting moves
- Trouba is nmc he controls for NY
- Trouba wants happy wife, happy life
- Wife wanted NY b'c essential to advance her medical career path
- Is the above still true in the following context: now that she's had 2-3 yrs of study, does she still have to be in NY, or can she be happy employed in a construct created for her?
Specifically: possibly she can only do X only in NY.
But also possibly, Dolan cuts a 1m tax deduction to ________ fill in the blank at ________ [adequate location] which employs Trouba's wife as part of that deal, doing a dream gig she wants to do.
Add to that Trouba(s) are currently residents of FL, presum for state tax purposes.
NY likes Trouba play but has Schneider elc ready to step in.
So, if the conditions can be taken to get Trouba to waive,
something around
Bennett + for Trouba +
?????
That could work on a lot of levels and be of positional benefit to both clubs
Yes and no.
In a theoretical vaccum, obv they are mutually exclusive.
But in reality both how close we are to that date and also what factors have been involved in player development -- or obstructions thereto -- are legit items to note.
Krav -
- development was better among tougher comp KHL, so that's where he was sent
- he excelled there
- he should have made the team, except
- Rangers did not create roster space then
- Drury who did not want him forced his hand
This is on top of the unmitigated bs that when he did get here for 20ish games end of last yr, he was identified as 'not a 4th liner" by idiot coach Q, who then played him w/dregs of the 4th line, extensively.
Kid has a legit beef.
Eye test says play him w/talent, let him get a bit of familiarity, develop chemistry w/steady linemates of ability, and he should star.
-------
Bennett was considered below his draft pedigree for many years, happy he has turned it around.
Bennett has been around long enough, there are no x factors still involved, he is what he is.
Krav is what he will be when he gets a legit, substantial chance.

A lot will depend on what/who Zito values more long term with one or both of Fosling and Weegar.
Weegar is due end of next year, along with Huberdeau and then Forsling the year following.
Huberdeau in FLA could settle around $8.5 to 9 million per
Weegar in FLA could settle around $5.5 to 6 million per
Forsling in FLA could settle around $4.5 to 5 million per
Not saying both Weegar and Forsling will both be back but I'd strongly assume one of them.
With Huberdeau, it was up in the air up until last year, and now with Barkov signed, the team in their contender window, I can see him taking a slight free market discount to stay.
I dont see any way FLA would be interested in Trouba at 8 million cap hit with Bobrovsky's cap still on the books for at least the next 2.75 years.
EDIT - thats not taking into account the medium term cap space we will need for Lundell, Knight and Tippett.
Hornqvist, Gudas and likely Reinhart will be moved to make room for the 2 or 3 main guys above.
Have a great day Bern.
Hopefully you're liking Gallant, he tells it like it is, saw him jawing at Zib thenother day
