Dabura 12,228 Report post Posted May 19, 2023 The Panthers kinda remind me of the '97 Wings. Had a phenomenal regular season but got pantsed in the playoffs. Decided they needed an edge, brought in a premier power forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just disagreed since Shanahan put an already Cup contending team over the top. The pre-Tkachuk Panthers were nowhere near as good as the pre-Shanahan Wings. And adding Tkachuk does not close the distance between the 2 teams. 5 minutes ago, F.Michael said: Salt Lake City Saints...

I find 'Cup Contending' teams are more challenging to differentiate since the salary cap was implemented. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last season, he put up 104 points. He's indisputably one of the best players in the league. But the point is merely that Tkachuk's a premier power forward with bite to his game and so was Shanahan, and both the Wings and these Panthers felt they needed that kind of player. 2 F.Michael and Walman6million reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At 1st I sorta 'lol' at your comparison, but then realized you're actually spot on (considering what Bowman - not Holland - sent in return for Shanny and how he elevated this franchise to the next level - like Tkachuk is doing with FLA). 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I'm just talking really macro-level stuff. Soft team that wins the Presidents' Trophy gets crushed in the playoffs, decides to trade for a power forward, etc. 1 minute ago, Axl Foley said: Except Shanny actually dropped the gloves instead of just being a little punk agitator.
