Does signing this guy prevent Flames from picking up big bodies with skills and speed? Its not like you have to give up picks/prospect/other NHL players to get him.
Panarin looked great in videos too and many said he was too small for the NHL, but I guess Chicago is regretting signing him now.
The point is you need to explore all avenues to improve the club.
