Three offseason areas that Florida Panthers GM Dale Tallon should look at.
Bring Jaromir Jagr back – Despite not scoring in the playoffs (he hasn’t scored in his last 37 playoff games), he’s a valuable piece to the franchise. He’s a role model for the young players.
Sign Vincent Trocheck to a long-term contract – He’s shown he can be a No. 2 center for them after putting up 53 points in 76 games this year. That would give the Panthers their three young centers under contract long-term. Tallon could then look at signing Aaron Ekblad to a contract extension.
Sign Andrew Ladd – Tallon tried to improve the Panthers on the wing by adding Teddy Purcell and Jiri Hudler at the deadline. Wouldn’t be smart to give him six-years and $36 million that he turned down from the Jets, but if they could sign him to a deal closer to what the Capitals signed Justin Williams to last offseason (two-years, $6.5 million), they should do it.
