Florida Panthers: Possible trades that could be made to improve the roster
Vegas Golden Knights – James Neal
According to SBNation, multiple teams have called the Knights about possibly acquiring James Neal, and the Panthers should be one of them. While the report have stated that the Knights will not trade Neal unless they are blown away, the Panthers could push through an offer that would be accepted.
While it’s quite a lot to give up for James Neal considering he only has one-year left on his contract, the Panthers could then immediately sign him to a contract extension as soon as he joins the team. Therefore, the Panthers would be able to hold on to the veteran for a decent amount of time.
This is probably the most unlikely trade to happen for the Panthers, but if it does, look for Neal to slide on the second line with Trocheck and Vrbata.
