There have not been rumors.

Also from Warren:

"People are losing it over this and I get it. Thing to remember is that it's a very specific scenario.

1. Seattle would need to take Price
2. Canucks would have to not extend Pettersson prior to FA
3. Pettersson would have to sign"

So, what he's saying is that everything would have to go right to even get to that point, then he'd have to sign it, which (IMO) Vancouver would then match.

I dont see how Vancouver doesnt match that.

Its all fun and games to throw out random salaries to make it fit the cap space but Lehkonen doesnt sign at a 50% salary reduction ! resigning KK to a contract past 3 years is not wise it gives him full UFA since after 7 seasons he get full free agency its gotta be kept to 3 or less years . IMO in a flat cap era David savard doesnt get much more than what Edmonson or Chairot get 3.5 to 4 max .

I love the Pettersson option wrote about the top potential offer sheet offers for mtl a few weeks ago on another platform . Miro Heiskanen was my first choice the comunity had Tkachuk way ahead of anyone and I kinda do agree with them Brady Tkachuk would be a hell of a steal if they got him but Ottawa isnt cap crunched like Vancouver is and now that Heiskanen is no longer Availlable and Danault leaving is more of a reality Elias Pettersson is a Great target

Now if we re dreaming and Price goes to Seattle in the draft and Weber is on LTIR gotta think Drouin is either on LTIR or moved also if you add his 5.5m to the 12.3M left on your cap space you can go after Hamilton and look to bring in Grubauer to secure the nets by moving Byron added to a few picks to save that 3.4 and you could possibly go after Hoffman also lets say you do move Byron and get Drouin off the cap either by trade or LTIR thats an added 8.9m to the already 12.2 that 21+ m could be divided with

Hamilton 8.5
Grubauer 6
Hoffman 6

you re left with about 750k cap space
