So really in terms of impact to the Panthers their offensive performance isn't that different YoY. They did get a player that is 4.5 years younger, and Tkachuk is the better 200 ft player and play driver. But the team really misses Weegar a lot.

In terms of making the Panthers better in the short term when they are trying to contend for a cup I still don't think it made them better. Trade might actually be a little bit lose - lose at this point, really Tkachuk is the only person coming out ahead...which is exactly what Tkachuk is all about.
And the Panthers have traded 3 years worth of first to get here...oh no I hope that doesn't put me over my Florida posting quota
