I don’t think the Canucks have the 14.5 mil for Huges and Pettersson combined .
One will have to be bridged for lesser $ per?

Did he turn it down for sure ? It was reported the Sens offered that but still haven’t heard anything from Brady’s camp, unless it’s assumed he refused the offer as the offer was made a few days ago and we haven’t heard anything yet ?
Canucks have $15.5 M once they waive all the extra depth players and place Ferland on LTIR.
I think Hughes and Pettersson are going to get $8 mil, with Hughes on a longer term deal than EP.
(Yes, they can fit that under the cap comfortably)

Reports came out yesterday that Canucks and Hughes are close on a long term deal.
Probably somewhere around 7/8 yrs - 8milish AAV
For Pettersson its looking like it will be a bridge deal which is the right move for Petey's camp. He is betting on himself and the fact that the cap will go up by the time he re-negotiates in 3 years when his bridge contract is over.
I expect 3 years 7.5AAV for Petey.
This isnt new for the Canucks in terms of how late into the off-season its going for contract negotiations with their studs.
Horvat signed late and I believe Boeser might have even missed camp and pre season games when negotiating for his 2nd contract.

aside from KK,
they others all re-sign, no trades, no offer sheets
and they all re-sign, worst case, before Nov 1
Kaprizov is the interesting case, with supposed the threat of returning to the K
with all the chatter about Eichel or Tarasenko trades, and some teams having considered such big splashes,
if a team thinks this headache is just a one-time 'blip', it could decide to trade a big price for a younger, healthier, top-6 skill F,
... wish he was a Center ...

Pettersson to bridge deal (2 x 7.5M)
Kaprizov bridge deal (1 x 7M)
Tkachuk bridge deal (2 x 7.25M)
Hughes signs (7 x 7.75M)
Kaprizov bridge deal (1 x 7M)
Tkachuk bridge deal (2 x 7.25M)
Hughes signs (7 x 7.75M)
Maybe not before the season, but after a while of waiting, that 1x7M will start to tingle... Especially since he is allready in their system and there is nobody better available at that price.
