So 28/29 is our new "age gap." Lankinen, Sherwood, Heinen, Debrusk, Zadorov, Lindholm, Old D-Petey, they're all 28/29 this season.

With Fernstrom gone, we've essentially traded the first 3 picks from last year's draft and we traded NYI's 1st, our 2nd, and our 3rd round pick in the 2023 draft. The return that is still with us? Hronek and one could technically say Old D-Petey due to Fernstrom's inclusion in the trade with the Penguins.

I'm fine with the Hronek trade. At the very least we essentially got him starting from age 26 so we effectively have him through his prime years. We paid a slightly lesser price for Old D-Petey. For those who are concerned about term for Zadorov (which management was) there's no way Old D-Petey gets less unless the Canucks overpay in AAV.
 
We went from Pettersson, Miller, and Horvat to Pettersson at 50%, Chytil (one hit away from retirement) and the likes of Suter and Blueger down the middle. Unless the plan is to offer sheet Bedard or throw $20 million at McDavid next season, I don't see how this team can contend.
