Value of: Penguins blow-up

[SladeWilson23]

Canucks will outbid and overpay more than Oilers and Blue Jackets for Pettersson

As long as there is no quota for Petterssons, Vancouver would be a nice landing spot.

It seems weird that Detroit would trade Copp and additional futures for Rust. Copp is younger and has 1 less year on his deal. Whether you want to question the cap hit or signing, he at least can fit in anywhere for them. I don't see Rust getting as much powerplay time or as many minutes in general on Detroit right now.

Where are Penguin fans in the know at, in terms of how much they'd pay to move Graves out?


Fellow Canucks fans would lynch me for even suggesting it, but honestly...they need to fix this defence and Graves is a guy who has shown he can play legit, leveraged Top-4 minutes with the right partner. He'd legitimately be their third best defenceman probably.

Contract is obviously untenable, but i'm wondering if Pittsburgh would put assets on the table to make that deal move, that would grease the wheels for a three-way-ish trade somehow?

No idea what that would look like, and other Canucks fans will just yell at me about it. But i'm curious if there's a third team they could get involved that could make it work somehow?

Graves is more of a bad fit than a bad player imo

Not putting picks/prospects on the table to move him but would happily take back someone similar or a bad contract

Does Dubas have it in him to do the right thing if the situation calls for the trading away of pending UFAs?

And even if he wants to start the tear down will ownership let him?

He did with Guentzel. And I would guess a few are as good as gone this season as well. Pettersson and Eller for sure. Then depending on interest maybe someone else
