Artemi Panarin’s Unbelievable Trade Destinations: Which Team Will Win the Ultimate Hockey Gamble?
Minnesota Wild
The Wild have been a rumored Panarin destination, but they seem unlikely at this point. For one, center is their biggest need. Additionally, Panarin shares an agent (Paul Theofanous) with Wild star Kirill Kaprizov. Theofanous and Kaprizov negotiated a huge extension with Minnesota going into the season, and our Minnesota-based colleagues Michael Russo and Joe Smith wrote Monday: “We find it hard to believe the Wild are going to want to add another Theofanous client after he leveraged them into giving Kaprizov a record $136 million contract last September.”
