I am constantly amazed at how much Habs fans seem to devalue Pettersson on here or seem to value their own assets too highly in their Pettersson proposals. As a Canucks fan, I'm not surprised that the ACGM vultures are circling; I am worried that Pettersson is going to pull a Tkachuk, after all, why wouldn't he? Vancouver has been a trash fire in terms of organizational competency and on ice product for a decade. But to think that you're going to get one of the elite players in the NHL who probably comps similar to someone like Pavel Datsyuk (an elite 1C who gets Selke consideration) for a cap dump, top-four defensemen and a lottery ticket is wild.
If a Canucks fan offered Garland (who I consider better value than Anderson), D Elias Pettersson (probably won't be at Guhle's level, but has a shot at top 4 given his progression this year), and a 1st (a lottery ticket...) for someone like Suzuki or Caufield (neither of whom are in Pettersson's tier at this point, I would argue), they would get ripped apart...
