<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ArmChairArtie</b></div><div>If Vegas (who clearly have seen him play more than anyone) thinks he’s worth the risk? Why isn’t he a priority?
If Vegas wanted him at 2 million why should we give him 4???
Sorry, It’s someone else’s hype...

Billing this kid as the-next-could-be-maybe-Panarin... Isn’t fair either.

Nigel Dawes was the #2 scorer. A 33 yr old former Ranger.
Nail Yakupov finally scored 20 goals in the same KHL...

There are some exceptions, but I trust Vegas scouts over anyone’s opinion.
I’ll pass.

THERE IS NO WAY ON GOD’S GREEN EARTH WILL I BE TRADING DOBSON OR WAHLSTROM FOR GUSEV.</div></div>

At no point did I even slightly suggest that Wahlstrom or Dobson should be sent to Vegas. Also, Vegas' scouts clearly liked him enough to tell GMGM to sign him in the middle of a playoff series. The bottom line is: Vegas is a team with a ton of chemistry in their top 6, values that, and also didn't expect Gusev to command a ton in RFA. They wanted the bridge (FWIW, Sorokin is also going to get this "bridge" deal if he ever comes over from CSKA). That's why he's on the block and that's why he's not going to be a Golden Knight. And we're really comparing this guy to Yakupov? and Dawes? When did they have the same international success Gusev had? Maybe world Junior's against U18 kids? Maybe it is unfair to say panarin, but there's definitely a reason as to why he's the most hyped up KHL player coming over as a FA in quite some time.
