Given that you can’t spell “Hjalmarsson” or “Panarin” (or even be bothered to look either of them up), I’m not shocked that you don’t realize this, but Panarin will not have 3 years of NHL service in (if the draft is next year as everyone suspects it will be) and therefore will be automatically protected/not subject…

The 20 strikeout game was in ‘98, so it wasn’t Ramirez (who wasn’t acquired until around the deadline in ‘03...with Kenny Lofton). 3B in the Wood 20K game was Cubs great Kevin Orie!
