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.

No. Panthers are not anywhere near as good as that team. If anything they're a better version of their 96 selves.

I dont see it. Tkachuk is not Shanahan. And Bob is way better than Vernon.

Tkachuk is a lot more like his father - who ironically is also a Tkachuk .....

I'll see myself out.

lol typical. him being lost.

I understood the reference. 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.

SLC is Mormon, Saints are a Catholic thing, my dude.

I find 'Cup Contending' teams are more challenging to differentiate since the salary cap was implemented.

Tkachuk put up 109 points this season.

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.

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).

Except Shanny actually dropped the gloves instead of just being a little punk agitator.

Then how about the 'Salt Lake City Harem' since they allow multiple wives...

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.

Mormon Church had to officially prohibit polygamy in order to get Utah statehood. They don't do that anymore. Although it would help with their recruiting I would think.

So Spencer Knight is in the PAP for being a silly billy drug addict. Does he get his name on the cup if Florida wins?

It would have to be a team petition. He doesnt qualify otherwise.
