I don't think it happens.
I think Rutherford is playing the media to try to gain control of the locker room situation.
I do think JT Miller gets traded in the offseason.

Proud Canucks investor.
Is there a way to bet on this happening? Because I don’t see it and wouldn’t mind putting a tidy sum on it not happening.

The Sabres are not going to get a playoff spot, there is no urgency in their end. Changes will be made now or in the offseason. Quicker does not help them
Vancouver is fighting for a playoff spot. Changes will have an impact for this year whether it helps or hurts is the question for the canucks

In the offseason Pettersson will probably no available and we will lose again, as always.
The Sabres needed to do something a month and a half ago or in the offseason

Hopefully the Canucks have absolutely no interest in him….Rutherford said they are under contract and will only be traded if it helps the team…..tough shit if they don’t like it….
Actually the cap going up 7.5 mil next season and off-season moves to free up additional space may make the market open up more….

Not until July 1, teams will already have a pretty good idea of who they want to cut and what acquisitions they may attempt to make.

Yes, which reduces our chances of getting Pettersson, we don’t have any problems with the cap anyway and won’t have any next season.

Yes, the same team that strung together their first 3 game win streak in, what, two months.
What would be more of an improvement, fixing this dramatic situation, or worrying about how Colorado could stay ahead of us and keeping two players that are the root cause of this dysfunction though? If we stand pat and do nothing, I don't see the team coming close to the playoffs.
I like Mittlestadt, but got anything else more D oriented and NHL ready than Ritchie?

I don’t take issue with you saying that we can trade with Colorado.
It’s the doom and gloom about the Canucks being unable to make the playoffs unless there’s changes and the dramatic expression of that. The team currently is 1 pt out. They just got Hronek back and Demko looked like Vezina Demko for the first time in his recovery during his last start.
The team doesn’t need surgery to win. Realistically, they need a top 3D and good health to be a contender.
If they can get a good deal moving Miller or Petey, they should do it. But that’s always the case.
In response to other posters, BUF should be motivated to get Petey, who is on a long-term deal, before his NTC kicks as it’s their most likely route to acquire a #1 centre.
