[GDT/PGT] Vancouver Canucks vs Toronto Maple Leaves | April 18 | SNP
Elias Pettersson replied to -SN-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Price played the last game. They got destroyed 4-0 by Ottawa and he let in 3 goals on 14 shots. -

Montreal is 4-6 in the month of April. Also, they only play Ottawa 2 more times. They may not even play .500 the rest of the year. The Canucks would have to win the remaining games in hand and then play just above .500 the rest of the way and they would at least have a shot I think. -

Myers was a beast tonight. Especially after Edler left the game. Anyone wanna get rid of him now? -

Imagine making the playoffs this year and then going to the Stanley Cup final. And then winning it. It would be the Cinderella story of the century. -

Would he accept a $3 million salary to officially retire and accept being an Uber driver for a year? -

Canucks' AHL affiliate may move from Utica
Elias Pettersson replied to Drive-By Body Pierce's topic in Canucks Talk
Abbotsford is actually perfect as they already have a nice rink, have the experience of having an AHL team already, and a lot of fans from the Fraser Valley and the Tri-Cities who normally don’t attend Canuck games can go see the AHL team. -

They could just play at the Pacific Coliseum and they could call them the Vancouver Jr. Canucks... Callups would only be a taxi ride away... -
[Signing] Jets re-sign Adam Lowry
Elias Pettersson replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
They are only 7 months apart. How can you make this statement based on a shortened COVID season? Lowry plays a very physical game. He may wear out alot sooner than Pearson... -
Washington got the best player in the deal so they won the trade. Mantha will be a point a game player with Washington. At 6'5" and almost 240 pounds he can be a beast in front of the net and be a 2nd Tom Wilson. Wilson and Mantha on two different lines will be hard for other teams to contend with. This is all about Washington getting the best player in the trade and making a playoff push to hopefully win another Cup. That's their objective. From Detroit's point of view, they are in complete rebuild mode and Yzerman's goal is to stock the shelves with draft picks to rebuild his team. So it's a win win for both teams in terms of their objectives for the trade. Yzerman will need to come through on all these draft picks he has acquired, so he has alot of work ahead of him. Mantha is to Washington as Miller is to Vancouver. Miller became a point a game player in Vancouver after playing on the 3rd line in Tampa. I can see Mantha having the same success with Washington. If that is the case then a late first and Vrana is not an overpayment by any means, considering we gave up a mid first round pick and a 3rd for Miller. Vrana has zero points in his last 15 playoff games, so flipping him for Mantha for this year's playoff run makes total sense. Mantha has never played in the playoffs before, but my sense is he will have much greater success in the playoffs than Vrana did for Washington.

From what I understand listening to SN 650 the players can simply refuse to play. They just won’t get paid for the games they missed. This was negotiated prior to the season when the players wanted to get paid their full salaries for the season even though they were only playing 56 games. The owners caved and gave them that request. I’m sure there are some players that actually need the money. Between taxes and escrow some of these guys won’t be making much more than some regular folks. -

No, EP is not going to consider an offer sheet
Elias Pettersson replied to LeafsFanDan's topic in Canucks Talk
Yes, I am humble and so happy to be in the NHL. And yes I love Vancouver so much, I do plan to live here forever. But you know I do need an upgrade on my Audi, and I would like to actually buy my own condo in Yaletown instead of renting, a real nice place with a view so I can pick up more girls. So to be honest I really do want a very big contract for next year which is why I switched agents. So you really don't know me that well after all... -
Tampa got Savard for basically the same price. They didn't even need him really as their defence is stacked. The Leafs on the other hand have an AHL defence. They should have went for Savard not Foligno. Tampa beat them to the punch and with Kucherov coming back right on time for the first playoff game they are the favourites to win the Cup.
