Hey it's HFboards, that's always clear.

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.

Well it was accurate all the way still

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.

Yup. I mentioned this in the M. Petey trade thread, but our forward setup worked because there were two 1st line centers that could each play with a non-top 6 forward.

Now that it's thrown out the window they're in desperate need of a legitimate top 6 center (lmao good luck with that) and probably another top 6 winger.

Also this team is screwed on the faceoff dot. You got Blueger at 50%, and Petey/Suter/Chytil at 40-43%.

No, Hronek was 24 when he was traded. Pettersson is 28. That’s a big difference, and a pending free agent.

The value of which is probably not such a high pick, but again having to dump a bunch of money in errors in scouting made it higher.

It’s a whatever trade if we’re able to re-sign him. But it speaks to the impatience of management.
