[Signing] Canucks re-sign Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes


Recommended Posts

OOOH BABY.

 

Hughes is pricy, but we bought UFA years (1 or 2, I can't recall).

 

Petey is a fine price for three years.

 

Overall, these are solid deals IMO--not bargains, but not overpayments.

The thing I like most about these deals are the terms.

 

-Myers will come off the books just as we need to re-up Pettersson

-OEL will come off the books just as we need to re-sign Hughes.  

 

Pettersson's qualifying offer will likely be enormous, but that's not a problem on my end if he proves to be worth of that at that time.  

 

Hughes *might* leave to NJ after his 6 years is up here (or wherever his brothers may be at that time), but for all we know, maybe his brother(s) would like to join us here between now and then.  A LOT can change in 6 years.  

 

All in all, I'm very impressed by these deals.  7.35 for Pettersson is highway robbery.

 

From what other posters have told me, the QO is only based off of the AAV now, not the final year of the contract. It was apparently changed in the most recent CBA.
