Lancaster Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 49 minutes ago, aGENT said: &^@# I hate agents... guy's just salivating over his commission. Parasitic scum But really, if we can sign Petey long term for anything around $10m +/-, he certainly looks like he'll be worth it. Ideally he works with the club and doesn't try to put the screws to them for every last penny so that we can continue to ice a deep, talented squad around him. Hopefully that JB will point to Edmonton and tell EP that they are trying to do the exact opposite of them. Horvat and Boeser "took a discount" relative to what their peers got (although it sets them up for a bigger payday next contract). Maybe the Canucks can sign Pettersson to a more reasonable cap hit, but front load it enough that the TVM will make it more appealing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd wait until the offseason unless the offer was 11 mil aav today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phat Fingers Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 8 hours ago, Alflives said: Exactly. Petey is putting up serious points while playing 18 minutes a game, or less. The dynamic duo in Edmonton (and they are great for sure) will regress. They are playing 25 minutes a night! That's crazy for any forward. 25 plus a night is not sustainable. The oil is one injury away from the 1st OA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegasCanuck Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I have a theory about Pettersson's lower shooting percentage to start the year. I think he grew so much during summer, his sniping accuracy is still catching up. Getting physically stronger can have an effect in other areas. The good news is, it should adjust over the next couple of months. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for a guy who's "off" its still pretty spectacular. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, it hasn't affected his passing, but his one timer seems to be going high, which my theory is, his aim hasn't caught up with his gained strength. Needs to spend a few hours on targets, last year, his one timer was deadly accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That PP goal vs LA proved it. But holy crap those passes are hard and accurate now. Give credit to Boeser and Miller being able to handle receiving them too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogy Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 It would be ideal for Pettersson to have a quicker more elusive release. This is what McDavid excels at. Pettersson should also work on quicker start-stop which should give him more space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a single doubt he has earn a 12 million a year contract, but the being said he seem like a guy who cares completely about winning and understands the salary cap restrictions. I have a sneaky suspicion that he’ll come in around 10 million 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
