Wings pass, makes no sense for them

Barkov doesn’t want to leave Florida, said it in a press convince

John Tavares said he didn't want to leave New York, Alex Pietrangelo said he didn't want to leave St. Louis, players saying things like this don't mean very much. Chances are Barkov is off the panthers by 2023 (that's his UFA year, right).

Blues didn’t have enough cap for pit same with NYI, FLA will be able to offer Barkov 12 mil if he wants it

Things can change in 2 years, maybe the do something like the blues and sign a Krug (a lesser Barkov).

I wouldn't hate it, but we'd need a guarantee that Barkov would sign long term, that's WAY too much risk for a guy that could walk in 2 years. I would think if he was a target, this would make more sense next year, in the final year of his deal, where we could make the trade contingent on Barkov signing an extension.

Yeah you honestly think that Ownership is going to give Barkov $12 million per season? Ownership is trying to slash payroll there's noway they're giving Barkov that much.

Considering they gave bob a 10x7 then yes 100% they will give Barkov 12 mil
