Speculation: Elias Pettersson will want out of Vancouver (Russo of the Athletic)

[Three On Zero]

So you don’t understand what the definition of a rumour is, got it.

This report/story fits under the definition of both a rumour and speculation. Please stop clogging this thread up with petty complaints because you don’t like the narrative. Thanks!

The narrative would be fine if it was true, hell if it was a legitimate rumour it would be fun! But alas it isn’t

 

[Mr Positive]

I don't see much to substantiate this

It's just connecting dots, ie BS

It doesn’t have to be true to be a rumour. Please at least try to understand the meaning of the word.

noun: rumour

1. a currently circulating story or report of uncertain or doubtful truth.

If this speculation did come to fruition with some sort of substantial evidence. I wonder what Chicago would give up next year if they landed Bedard.

Chicago getting Bedard and Pettersson would be unreal

Rumor has to still at least claim to have a real source somewhere

On this site we use "speculation" to describe what this thread is talking about. It's on a lower tier than rumor

You can keep saying it, doesn’t mean it’s right

 

[themelkman]

Makes sense at this point. He might never say it but of course hes thinking it

 

[Raistlin]

didn't Russo start all those Boeser to Wild rumors?
isn't Russo a Minny Wild writer?
unless EP is linked to Wild (for Dumba??), I doubt "his gut" knows anything more than my left cheek.

95% of his writing is wild related

Russo has spent like the last 5 years shooting down Boeser to the Wild from a fanbase that keeps bringing it up.

It’s a definition lmao

My sources tell me EP wants out = rumour
My gut tells me EP is GOING to want out = speculation


It is a pretty simple concept

It’s a definition lmao

Jesus f***ing Christ

I have a degree in journalism. No source = speculation. It’s literally why newspapers and news organizations label things as editorials, opinions, etc. That’s speculation.

Know what they do when they have a source? They just write a normal ass article since it isn’t someone’s opinion.

Anyways, that’s my contribution to the thread. Good luck figuring it out. Pretty simple stuff.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I feel bad for Vancouver fans. First it was Horvat, then Boeser, now Pettersson ouch!

Hughes also said the Pearson injury wasn't handled right from the start. Was that a dig at the medical staff, team management, both? The Benning years will take a long while to move on from, especially if players zero faith in the current regime either.

It’s a message board, we’re using normal English and I’m applying the definition of a word. I don’t think it’s a big deal either way, I’m not the one taking issue with the prefix of the thread.

Honestly, I've been for trading everyone except for Hughes (due to the length of his contract) for two years now.

We should be working to our tank Chicago for Bedard...turns out, we didn't need to trade anyone to be in the mix.

Seems we might actually hit rock bottom.

lets see the landscape between now and then. What people dont realize is not many teams can just take on a 10 million dollar player and inject them as their top 1 c. Petterson will want to be with a team he can progress with but he most likely not take a pay cut or a significant role decrease to play for another club.

 

[General Disarray]

Can't blame him, that team is a tire fire.

Context still matters

 

[Menzinger]

Although frequently triggered by Matt Murray being within 10 feet of a goal post, Russo is not a rumor monger when it comes to this sort of stuff

He would likely return a couple roster players, so a team wouldn’t need a full 10 million

 

[MOGlLNY]

They should do a Kevyn Adams.

1. Ascertain contracts and players that 100% want or need to move.
2. You don't want to be here, you can go too.

Buffalo *might* be a good partner.
EP40 for Cozens?

While the value is good, I don't think the Sabres would be interested in that deal as Cozens is pretty much exactly the Sabres loving players Adams talks about needing to be here.

 

[Kimota]

There's only one Russo that matters:

 

[LBCANUCK]

Yes but its obviously tricky when you think of a couple roster players the canucks would covet and the same time the other team is willing to part with.

At least they locked up Miller
