With these signings and some of the young bucks coming out of Coachella and a brand new coach, I'm very excited for the new season. Now can we also get our 3rd jerseys and the Fanatics practice jerseys please 😊
I am super excited to see these players play, and excited overall for the season and how we can contend for the playoffs. The term and future is not looking great for the contracts main focus is play great now hopefully I see a great season! Go Kraken!
These were 2 crappy moves in my mind. Not impressed. 7 years for Stephenson?? What a joke.
(commented before i watched the video)I LOVE THOSE MOVES. About time Francis rattles some cages. We need a Centerman that can actually win faceoffs so what happens he goes and gets Vegas best centerman. And then goes and gets Floridas TOP scoring defenseman. So now we can have Dunn run the other powerplay. Evans can learn the NHL at a steady pace instead of being thrown to the wolves. And Beniers can actually be a winger which means HIGHER POINT PRODUCTION EXCELLENT
I agree! It’s always more fun to be an optimistic fan! Thanks for the review. I’m excited to see who gets dragged into the deep next season 🦑
Just too many years……i wish we knew what they are thinking???
Here's my thoughts after the video. What i think the signing of Stephenson means for Wright and Beniers. I think this will put Beniers on a wing making him focus more on the scoring. Wright can still move up as the #2 Centerman leaving Gourde at 3. Then letting IDK Kartye be the Center for the 4th line. He did that a little bit at the end of the year last year and i thought was pretty decent at it. But either Wright or Beniers will be moved to wing. That's my guess here.
As a loyal panther bandwagoner… hurts to see Montour leave
