Panthers’ Larkin Pursuit Carries Real Risk, Greer Value Looms

Florida’s reported interest in Dylan Larkin comes with the usual catch for a player of that caliber - the acquisition cost can get ugly fast. The A.J. Greer angle adds another layer, because teams never stop counting the roster mistakes they might regret once the market settles. This is the part of team-building that looks smart on a board and painful in October if the fit is wrong. The Panthers are weighing ambition against cost, and that is where front offices earn the money.
