Rangers traded for the right guy here. Pettersson has a shit attitude and would not have been a fit on a team with enough malcontents. I will give him a slight benefit of the doubt though because Vancouver is an actual horribly run organization and Pettersson seems to be getting pressured to play through a chronic knee injury.

Elias Pettersson has scored as many goals in 2025 as Alex Nedeljkovic and Matt Rempe.

Adam Fox for EP40, who says no? :sarcasm:
 
Anyone complaining about Kakko at this point isn't even bothering to see how little of a difference his play has been in the move to Seattle.

He's getting more Power Play time and playing on a higher line yet producing a whopping 11% more per minute. The fact that anyone cares at this point is laughable.

Also, this includes the 75 minutes of PP time he's gotten with Seattle (he had 0 minutes with the Rangers). That's over 2.5 minutes per game of PP time. And he's only producing barely 11%, 0.004 points-per-minute higher?

And some are mad about this?
 
Jason Robertson looked bad to start the season. He was already a slow skater before injury but after injury he looked bad. Reason I brought him up is he bounced back hard. Hopefully a guy or 2 of ours will as well.
