    “VAN ultimately decided in favour of another attempt at extending him, and he allowed his agents to resume talks.”

    “No extension is complete at this time, but there certainly is momentum in that direction.”

    This is the biggest tease I’ve read on this sub in a while

    Thinking at least 3 players and 3 future first rounders

  4. socialaxolotl

    A deal like that definitely includes Necas

  5. Mr_Panther

    I’m too poor to think about the cost of this trade.

  6. Canucks fan coming in peace. Curious what the Canes offered…

    For context on Pettersson’s game:

    He’s a 25-year-old 100 point center (about to be back to back 100 points) who finished 7th overall in Selke trophy voting last year and is one of the top 5v5 scoring players in the league this season.

    Curious what your offer would be?

  7. One of the wilder rumors I remember hearing this time of year. Have to imagine this turns out to possibly be an offseason move. How does Vancouver sell “we’re cup contenders” to their fanbase and then trade their best forward?

    A deal like that has got to include Nikshkins rights, wouldn’t it? It looks like it’s not going to happen anyway, but this would require A LOT of capital. I’m more curious in the thought exercise of what this would take than it actually happening (because it almost certainly won’t) .

    Lol. Canucks said, “have the contract discussion, or we’re trading you to Carolina” and he said, “ok fine”

  10. Even if this isn’t happening anymore, it’s glad to see the Canes are at least interested in swinging for the fences

    Why does every Canes trade rumor post just continue to make my balls bluer? FFS

    So close to elite talent once again :/

    I fucking said that DW likes throwing curveballs, and this is one of them

    I’ve gained a lot of respect for Don. Not his fault that Petey wanted to resume trade talks. Shows he is indeed willing to go ham for the right guy
