Definitely, my guess Stan offers Vegas a late round pick to take Kruger.

I'll think about it

It sounds like this was Stan's first offer to Panik. Ya....this one is a bit of a head scratcher.

Richard Panik: "The first offer they gave me surprised me. There wasn’t much thinking involved. ... It was a really good one." #Blackhawks

It's because Stan can't negotiate his way out of a cardboard box, he literally doesn't know the meaning of the word "hardball".

CHI: What do we have to do to keep TvR?
LV: We like Panik, but have to ensure we get to the cap floor.

CHI: What about 2 year, $2.8M per?
Panik: Umm... yes.... What's the catch?
CHI: Nothing, we loved the way you played and think it's a fair offer.
Panik: Ok...

CHI: Done.
LV: Perfect.

As if suddenly Stan starts being sneaky? Panik's agent should have asked about that and received a guarantee but I have a hard time believing Stan would take that route with a player who might have been the best trade he's ever made. I suppose it is possible, I just have doubts. It seems more likely that this is a continuation of Stan's trend of over paying to keep players, especially his pet projects. (See Rundblad, David.)
