Confirmed with Link: Canucks sign Marcus Pettersson to a 6y/5.5m Extension

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

very nice friendly deal. cheap. the Left side D is set. once dpetey matures and improve his game in 3-4 years that would be great.

you mean.... 3-4 weeeks?

 

[Kryten]

Great deal chef

 

[Hammer79]

With the cap going up, this is an absolute steal. This pulls up the trade with Pittsburgh by a full letter grade.

Im known to dabble in being wrong from time to time.

I have the talent for it but lack the work ethic to make the best of that talent.

No doubt about that

Do we... do we go after Rantanen in the summer?

Probably re-signs with the Canes, or asks 13mil+ in UFA

I'd look into something like Konecny. Philly needs a rebuild, and Konecny would be a great fit as a speedy, feisty mid-20's play-driver that is locked up longterm. Plus we'd still have cap space moving forward if treated as an upgrade on Boeser:

Van 2025 1st
Boeser
Mynio

Philly flips boeser for a 1st and b prospect, so essentially they get 2 firsts + 2 prospects and really lean into a rebuild.

Wow, it seems like after nearly a decade of major questions on D that things have finally stabilized and should get even better when Willander arrives and EP2 continues to evolve. What a turnaround in such a short time.
The fact that we can beat a pretty good team in Colorado 3-0 with no Hughes would be unimaginable even just a few weeks ago. It just makes such a difference when you can balance out your D pairs and have everyone playing appropriate minutes and assignments.

No Hughes, maybe that is a good thing. Practice for the near future.
The future once again will be top draft picks and young players under cap control for 6 to 8 years.

Pretty decent cap hit for MP. I would have preferred to wait a little bit longer. Hate to find out he hates flying now or ....

What good would Konecny do at 36 years old? Mid 20's? You mean like 25? More like late 20's at 28yrs old. Pretty much a player getting in the 50's for points for a career average.

Well, currently 27... but under 9 mil per when contracts are about to skyrocket. Fwiw, he's Hronek/Mpettersson age

Career average is a terrible way of looking at a player. He's right about ppg over the last 3 seasons on a shit team. He's become a really good player, in case you didn't know.
