Ok, so the Jackets are going to trade Panarin to a division rival, when the Jackets are battling that said team for a playoff spot? No. On top of that, the return is ridiculously bad.
Burakovsky is 8th in his draft class in goals, so far, just between Drouin and Mantha. Picked in the same draft as Duclair and Bjorkstrand, he has exactly as many even strength goals as both of them, put together. He is third in the class of 2013 in playoff points. Burakovsky alone, long term, is worth a rental on Panarin.
Samsonov is not going anywhere. Better chance you get Holtby.
Eller is the Caps leading forward in SHTOI this year, and second in faceoffs won. He also plays third line and often outscores some teams' second line centers.
Panarin is good, but the Caps have lost, a whole lot of games, lately. They're probably not taking on any rentals that cost more than a 4th round pick.
I have seen some offers of Wennberg to Washington, or of Duclair, Murray, or other long-term guys who might get some of the above pieces into discussion.
