Won't be getting that from buffalo

wow and i thought my AGM on this was being optimistic lmao

Good lord Canucks fans are delusional

Not one team makes that trade... so enjoy getting 1 more year of EP40 via arbitration and then he goes UFA

Certainly won't be getting that from Columbus. Take Jiricek out and put lottery protection on the pick and the answer is maybe.

Just wild variations in values

If you want Bedard it would take just about every asset your organization has. Also pretty sure like none of these teams would even consider these.

I was going to say "this is going to be good" but that would be incorrect: the comments are already so good. This is just on another level.

You of course would accept Bedard for EP, but Davidson would not.

De lulu

Can't accept what is not offered

People don't realize that this isn't supposed to be realistic value for Petterson, this is what Allvin would ask in return for him.

If no one is willing to pay that much then no one is willing to pay that much

Bedard? You've got to be kidding! You better be ready to include Hughes to even get a conversation going

Fair point. The best place for him is Vancouver, and the Canucks should absolutely pay him whatever he wants to retain him. The earliest they'd consider trading him is summer if the RFA talks break down, anyway.

You should have put McDavid and Draisatl half retained for Pettersson, it's on the level of these returns.

1 year deal in arbitration than he hits UFA. If people on the Island hate Tavares I can only imagine what Nucks fans will think if Petey walks for nothing in a couple years lmao.

Welp, I guess EP40 will only sign a 1 year deal then. He knows damn full well that almost every team will ring him up as a UFA. Cause no GM is going to pay those trade prices, and if they did they wouldn’t live long enough to tell the tale.

yeah none of those trades dont even make it down on paper let alone actually happening.

Its so funny how Pettersson keeps saying he's happy in Vancouver but wants to focus on playing hockey, not a new contract and people are surprised when he doesnt sign a new contract today. I would be very surprised if he does not re-sign

what indication has he given that he is not happy here and will walk?

Well when you are offered a $12m AAV contract and you don't accept... it sets off massive alarm bells

Or maybe he just wants to wait until the end of the season like he has said for months? If Nylander got 11 mil +, I'm sure Petey wants to see how his season finishes so he can have the most leverage

Or maybe he doesn't want to sign there and deal with the media there... none of us know

Canucks sign EP40 to an 8 year deal retain half, and then retains 50% on Hughes.

50% retained on Hughes and EP40 on year deals for this package

So you're saying there is no chance of Pettersson being traded.
