Pettersson stats (regular season and playoffs) since February 1st, 2024: 52GP-8G-26A-34P.

That's a PPG of 0.65 or 53 points over an 82 game season.

Is 52 games too small of a sample size?

It's spread over 9 months too, so any injury excuses can be put to bed. (He's missed exactly 0 games during this time period).

Another reason I don't buy the injury thing with Pettersson is that there are several things going on with him at the same time. He's not shooting pucks and then you've also got the declining speed and bursts. So what is it? The knee? The wrist? You know what I'm saying? To me it looks like a hockey player and a person that is just a shell of himself. It's that simple.

It's officially time to be concerned. The stats don't lie. This has gone on for a long, long time.

He's playing at about half his current contract value.

I just don't think he wants to be here. Simple as that.

Then why sign the contract?
The really simple answer is that he did not want to be in Carolina.

I don’t want to partake in this convo - just
pointing out that VAN management smartly turned it into an either or instead of letting it get to the summer where he could basically pick his destination like M Tkachuk did
