eh, they got nothing to lose, at this point they are desperate to make the playoffs. They could be a surprise team come playoff time with Luongo on net and the vets that they have. They are deep as hell but the offense doesn't seem to get it together
The Pitt paid a lot more than the Panthers with Winnik. Winnik is a 4th line player. Jagr is still capable of a 3rd line role. I don't really think the Panthers care about a few draft picks because they have sucked for so long, they drafted in the lottery each year. They have a ton of high skilled, young players on the verge of busting out.
