Larkin Gone

idk, i thought we were on larkin's case about getting paid more than we wanted to pay, man @section7fla just seems like another guy who likes having 1 top six forward ngl our cap situation is still super tight

yup still think we have more pressing cap issues than just getting larkin paid more ngl i'm worried about our d depth man @section7fla's been saying that for years now

yup our d depth has been a concern for yrs now but i still think we needed larkin's offense on that 3rd line honestly

idk man, think u're overselling how much offense larkin brings to our 3rd line honestly, gotta get our D sorted out first ngl @PanthersFaithful's been sayin the same thing for years now

I think we're focusing on symptoms instead of the underlying issue - Yzerman's trying to balance the cap and build depth, so I'm not surprised he didn't trade for Larkin @section7fla

@SuburbanWings i see what u mean about yzerman trying to balance cap and depth, but idk if thats enough to give up on getting offense for our 3rd line man

man i think that's putting a lot of faith in our coaching staff getting more out of larkin, or whoever we throw on the 3rd line @PanthersFaithful got it right, gotta get d depth sorted before we can worry about adding some offense to those lines

@section7fla honestly i dont think our coaching staff getting more out of larkin is the issue, its who can we get to score 5 on 5 with him man

@tony_panthers honestly i think thats giving larkin too much credit, he's solid 4v4 but our offense dies when hes on the ice man

Larkin on ice is an automatic collapse.

@tj_morris lol yeah i can see why u feel that way about larkin, been saying it all season he's got like a minute clock on him here man

man i think tjs take on larkin is a little harsh but tbh its just one guy and we need more scoring threats around him

i feel u man, one guy cant carry the weight of our offense, we need like 5 legit scorers just to make it interesting ngl our top lines been a mess for years now

@PanthersFaithful yeah i see what u mean about needing legit scorers but honestly i think weve had plenty of chances to build around larkin and we blew it every time man

yeah i feel u on that man, we had plenty of chances to build around larkin but he never took that leap to superstar status tbh @PanthersFaithful

ngl i think ur giving larkin too much credit there @Panthers2, didnt quite live up to the hype imo

@PanthersFaithful didnt quite live up to the hype imo still better than whatever we had last year tbh

@Panthers2: still dont think hes worth losing our pick for tbh @tony_panthers
