Rumor: Canucks on the verge of signing Elias Pettersson for eight years!

[God]

who was worried?







i was worried.

Rumors swirling its a sign and trade

Please post these rumors.

 

[StickShift]

Anyone else suffering from anxiety and waiting for the next tweet from a different insider saying something to the contrary?

Fully prepared to see next: “I am told reports of a Pettersson extension are premature and that both parties are upset that conversations have leaked.”

 

[Hansen]

This is huge for the team. Having this contract done allows actual strategizing for cap allocation going forward

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

I hearing that it’s D-Petey.

You absolute monster.

 

[wonton15]

Petey signs for 8 years. Allvin needed his assurance that he’s committed so he can go ahead and trade for Guentzel. Allvin sends Mikheyev back as a dump. We then trade for Duhaime, Bjugstad, and Stecher as depth.

We win the cup.

f***. No more drama...

Actually, Hronek has remained unsigned. Does he hate the city and the fanbase? Stay tuned!

 

[Vector]

Am I missing something, nothing is done yet. You guys are making me refresh twitter.

Yeah but he's not infallible.

I hold frank in the same regard as Eliotte but I still think some of these posts are premature.

Yeah, it’s still very much in the rumour phase. I trust Seravalli quite a bit but this could still fall through.

Seravalli has invested a lot of time and money in building his connections in the Vancouver market over the last year.

If he signs before next game, every f***in one of you guys in the stands better give him a standing O and name chant when it's announced.

Imagine how good that would feel for him. Let's get our boy fired up for the post season.

If that falls through we can have more JT Miller body language interpretation. That was sooo much fun the last time...

This is great news to hear after weeks of concerns coming from media sources.

Glad that Pettersson (might have) realized that there’s no need to wait and let this hang over everyone’s head for the next few months.

He’s got everything he asked for here. Now let’s get it together and make a deep run.

 

[TruKnyte]

lol, goes to show the media doesn't know shit, and that the management of this team did a great job keeping a lid on things.

Also glad that I won't need to change my jersey name

 

[Petey O]

The Tkachuk pipedream dies a horrible death, but I am glad that it's an 8 year deal over a 4 year deal or something. Having elite players who want to play in Vancouver long term is awesome.

I really hope he breaks out of this weak willed, low confidence hockey though. He needs to be better. Hopefully this is something he can put behind him as a distraction and really bear down and lead this team to glory.

[Phrasing]

My guess is the Canucks needed to plan for this deadline and for the offseason given all their UFAs and couldn’t let this deadline slip by without knowing EP’s position and probably gave the agent a hard date while using media to vent frustrations.

Brady Tkachuk dream? Are you f***ing serious?

This has to be the most irrational fanbase on the board.

 

[EpochLink]

BUT THE CANUCKS SOURCES SAY PETTERSSON WANTS OUT OF VANCOUVER!

Don Taylor and Rick Dhaliwal can go kiss an elephants ass.

I called it a 'pipedream' for a reason. Fans are allowed to speculate and engage in fun fantasy discussion. That's one of the main reasons this board exists.

Every fanbase does it. Why do you feel the need to act like it's only Canucks fans? lol.

 

[ghostingtaro]

i hope its an 8x8 hometown special

no way he makes more than jt miller and hughes

Yeah this fanbase is ridiculous. We all know deep inside that it was the Zegras dream.

Edit: Any additional sources?

Because you'd rather have Brady Tkachuk than Elias Pettersson. What other fanbases want to downgrade from their best players?

Lemme head over to the Rangers sub and see if some of them wanna trade Panarin for Ehlers.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Cautiously optimistic here.

I've been a detractor of his lately. Not because I'm not a fan (I have his f***ing jersey) but because I know he's capable of more than he's been showing on a nightly basis.

Hopefully, the numbers make sense and he can put all of the drama nonsense behind him.
