BANG! Dang that’s a huge signing. Really did not expect us to go 6 years with him so soon. While the first year or two that may be pricey, that could easily be a steal on the backend. He really stepped up and made some huge plays these playoff run despite being by far the youngest player on the roster.
We got the vast majority of a title-winning forward core locked in during their prime for **YEARS** to come. LESSGO!!!
I love bill zito
Fudge yeah!
Fuck yeah Zito. Core is locked up. Swaggy and Benny next!
Vladdy and RHD and we should be good to go again yeah???
Biggest move for the panthers this offseason, at 22 he is the future.
Common Zito W, gotta think Lundell steps into that 2C role sooner than later, barring him falling off a cliff(which at 22 id be surprised lol) this is gonna be a huge steal.
BABY BARKYYY
keeping little Finland together
I root for him, hope he can be number center in 2 years. Just need to resign Verhaeghe now.
I expected the extension, pleasantly surprised by the term
Yay!
Baby Barkov secured
We are so back
Probably means Mackie to play 3rd line rw? Hoping he hits because seeing what Lundell can do with talented wingers could make this a steal.
WOOO! Very happy with this, keeping the core together for years to come
We’re going back to back, aren’t we?
Wow that’s huge. Did not expect it but happy to have it. Tarasenko seems like the odd man out now unfortunately
The way he played during the playoffs this is worth every penny
The possible future of this franchise
Great stuff. Looks like there’s no more cap space according to puckpedia after this signing.
I think we work on a Swaggy deal next, and it’s very likely we trade or let Benny walk next year.
It would suck big time but this term and AAV infers the team intends to reap a bargain 2C and flesh out the bottom 6
Unless Zito is cooking up a trade to move salary space, this means Tarasenko is gone.
In Zito We Trust
We live in a world where a 22 year old player drafted by the Panthers already has over 50 career playoff games played. We are in the good timeline
I love this deal!
Locking up the core is huge. This may be a down year if the kids don’t impress on D, but the future is so bright
