Panarin would be doing what he's doing wherever he signed. Hyman would not be doing what he's doing without McDavid. It's a no brainer who the better signing was. Media just says stuff like this because they know anything that riles up Leafs fans will get clicks.
bruins/pasta video?
If Hyman has 50 on his wing, panarin would have 75. Hyman is having a great season but any decent nhl player could have 25+ on his wing
not humongous. humangous…
Hyman!
Hopkins had his time of the year last season, Hyman gets his this season
Jonathan Drouin is on pace for 55+ points and is being paid the league minimum this year. Obviously he's gonna get paid this summer since it's a one year deal, so not the absolute best FA signing but it is really awesome how he's refreshed his career with Colorado.
He's a very good player. But he's not going to repeat this season. He never had success like this before. And being in the PP with McCrotch all the time doesn't hurt.
Both are great signings. Panarin is a franchise player and his contract played out well, this year he`s playing insane.
Hyman is a top 6 player, but he plays a role. And he`s great at it. His contract is half the cap and played out great.
There`s one difference – Hymans contract will likely turn bad, as he will become 32 and then has 4 more years. The chances that he`s a 50G scorer when he`s 35 and 36 years old are slim. Especially as this physical play in front of the opponents net comes with a toll on the body.
Panarins contract will run out in 2 more seasons, when he`s just 34 – and he`s the kind of player that will age well.
Right now Hyman might look like a better signing, but overall Panarins contract is better. They signed a franchise player as UFA through all his prime, and NYR are way more likely to win a cup as EDM is right now and in the next seasons.
The math is simple. Are 2 Zach Hyman's better than 1 Artemi Panarin? If the answer isn't clear then, I don't know how to help you.
If you watch NYR over the last 5 years, you will realize that their entire offense runs thru Panarin. He makes everyone around him better whereas on the Oilers, players around Hyman make Hyman better. That’s what you want out of an UFA and is what makes Panarin a better signing.
Hyman got to 50 because of his line mates. He had cinder blocks for hands in Toronto.
I really can’t even believe this is a debate. Oilers fans would put Hyman in a dumpster for the chance to get Panarin 😂 Panarin is one of the best players in the entire world
Hyman is better for a team that already has 2 top 5 players on the team. When you have a team like Rangers where there is not clear generational/franchise level talent on the team, a Panarin signing is more important and valuable, aka better. So its not a decision thats just flat out better in all situations, its… situational.
Tell me you know your hockey history without telling me you know your hockey history:
@0:37 😂😂😂
Want to see more rangers vids
look if Connor Mcdavid was free agent signed by the Edmonton oilers and the rangers signed like Vladimir tarasenko in 2017 for like 4 million for like 7 years, that is the argument here and no matter what Mcdavid would still be the free agency steal. That's reality
Hymen = JUSTIFIED!!
How the hell is it a debate when one makes half of the other? I’d take hyman at 5.5 over panarin at 10+ 10/10 times
i mean ive signed rantanen jack hughes and igor shesterkin from free agents in nhl franchise mode🤷♂
The Breadman is the McJesus of the Rangers. Case closed.
He said best free agent signing not best player to go to free agency….Best free agent signing indicates best value signing, how is this a debate?
Hyman is a beauti
Oilers suck
Idk. If you double Hymans stats for double the value, is that similar to Panarin?
Sometimes high value targets choose to go free agency because their teams are going to hell. Not surprised he didn't stay with Columbus.
Consider the players that are making 11 mill a year and compare him to them, and likely you aren't getting the same value.
Performance to cost ratio clearly indicates hyman as the better player. Is he more skilled? Probably not and I say that even as a biased Oilers fan who is a big fan of Hyman. But the simple fact that he is producing at the level he is and he has reached new career highs ever since signing here and is making less than half the amount of money puts him in the #1 spot for best free agent signing. Panarin is amazing but considering his cap hit he is not the better signing.
