Pettersson uncertain about future with Canucks ( article)
CanadianRugby replied to cuporbust's topic in Canucks Talk
You're overthinking it. He's ultra competitive and just wants to win. The Canucks have been straight up awful more often than not in recent years. If you get out of the CDC bubble, analysts, hockey people and even Canuck players have wondered what Benning and ownership is doing. That's where these comments come from and if the team looks like it's becoming a Stanley Cup contender (not just a playoff contender) then these comments go away. If they don't, he gone. -
Elias Pettersson | Quinn Hughes - Contract Discussion Thread
CanadianRugby replied to Bertuzzipunch's topic in Canucks Talk
Teams already have kinda figured it out, at least Vegas did. Pressure him as soon as he gets the puck so he doesn't have space to do his thing. Hopefully he improves overall, and a legit top pairing guy to play with (so, not OEL) wouldn't let teams just skate at him and leave his partner open. -

So they can overpay more bums in free agency? -
Elias Pettersson | Quinn Hughes - Contract Discussion Thread
CanadianRugby replied to Bertuzzipunch's topic in Canucks Talk
Hey I'm all in for "following the Tampa route" but to follow that route you need a GM capable of pulling it off.. a winning team to make taking discounts be worth it, and/or an internal cap where nobody gets paid more than your stars like when the Sedins were here. The Canucks have none of these things. As far as the Toronto thing. Pettersson isn't Matthews.. and there's no reason for the Canucks to pay youngsters the way that Toronto does, any more than there's reason for Toronto to pay bottom 6 forwards and average defensemen the way Vancouver does. -

Why would Hughes take less than OEL when he's better in every way? -
