So the value of Provorov himself was considerably lower than a 1st and 2 2nds.
The Athletic article was based on discussions with several other NHL correspondents. Which is more likely?
A) Hanifin is worth less than a lot of Flames fans think.
B) Several correspondents in different NHL cities all have a hate-on for the Flames. For reasons.
The offers seem a bit low, but I expect they’re closer to the actual return than a lot of fan proposals being bandied around.

You're forgetting C.
C) Most reporters actually have no idea what they are talking about.
All those proposals are beyond bad and none of them make much sense to be honest. Like that Dallas Stars proposal is one of the worst proposals I've ever seen. A meh prospect, a cap dump, and a 4th round pick. Like what is that.

It's a lot closer than just Duclair.
And it's more that the Panthers just have no other attractive pieces that would work. No first. Denisenko and Samoskevich don't move the needle. If other teams are offering picks in that 10-20 range then Lundell is the only piece that is close. Is Lundell worth the 13th overall pick in this draft straight up...I think that's probably a discussion and probably pretty close.
