Petey will be in double digits and that will decimate the depth of the team and likely close the window substantially maybe or maybe not. I could be wrong but I just can't see EP and Hughes being so greedy. I think they are invested for this team to win 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Mckinnon and McJesus have already proven themselves as superstars. Petey, no matter how much we want to project, is not there yet. So it would be painful, but you'd have to make that trade. Especially for McJesus. Now trading one Mc for the other Mc? That would be a tougher call. NO!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that part of being the best player in the world? Insert Petey here. He has 41 assists in 40 games. 58 minutes ago, Kragar said: I dunno... 12.5M pays for Bo and Miller, and leaves almost 2M leftover. Some good offense and 2-way play in place of some great/outstanding offensive skill and far less 2-way play would make for a better team. Lol seriously? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when they took one away from Daniel because he turned his skate... never seen that interpretation again (why do we believe in the 2nd rule book?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petey will be in double digits and that will decimate the depth of the team and likely close the window substantially Perhaps. I think Canucks have a much better prospect pool, so those making minimum when Petey gets paid are likely gonna be better than many/most filling out the Oiler roster now. Be interesting to see how friendly a deal they take when the time comes. Wouldn't put it past him to take a slight discount to make the team better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every player says that, almost none of them actually do it. Peteys next contract will likely be double digits, then the Canucks are in trouble, imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kragar Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 21 minutes ago, J-23 said: Lol seriously? Somewhat, yeah. Using Bo and Miller was just an example, but for an Oiler team which has meh depth and struggles on the defensive side, they (with a decent GM) do better with the 12.5M. Teams need a strong leader to captain the team. As great a player as McD is (and he sure is), how many think if him as a good leader? Tippett has probably improved things there, but burning out the top two guys midway thru the season hasn't worked well enough in the past for them. Oilers need help (not that I want them to get it!)

Its how Chicago, Tampa, Boston, and others extended their windows beyond a single strong core. Problem is, who do the Canucks have coming up to do this with?

I do think they're getting to the point where they can start trading off valuable assets to bring in younger, cheaper prospects. Maybe not quite there yet, but close.
