Give a thumb’s up if you think Matt Sekeres won the debate (yes, Pettersson will leave if they miss the playoffs again)
Give a thumb’s up if you think Blake Price won the debate (no, Pettersson will NOT leave if they miss the playoffs again)
He’s a goner
Petterson said it in Swedish. He wants to play for a winner. He has given the team that drafted him a decent bridge and will probably match Hughes years imo.
So scenario: canucks miss playoffs again.
Yes he will re-sign but the years will be very short and maximum value. He will be mostly honest about the situation and if they start to improve and he sees he gets 1 shot at a final appearance here he will extend on fair price, not home town discount but at a number that would Reflect JT Millers mindset when he committed to them.
My concern is that we know where Elias stands now contract-wise. He wants to win. If he gets hurt this year, his value plummets and without him, the team probably doesn't have a hope in hell of making the playoffs. If that happens, he's not going to want to resign, which means they'll have to trade him or lose him for nothing, which would be catastrophic. But an injured Pettersson isn't going to be worth a king's ransom on the open market, and we'll be kicking ourselves down the road. We need to stop getting so attached to players. I stopped that childishness after the 1994 run and the franchise decided to lose guys like Ronning and others basically for nothing. I got attached to that '94 team because they achieved something – a Conference championship and Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. This team can't even make the playoffs. All I care about is team success, not Individual players. These guys aren't my boyfriends. They're millionaire hockey players and if they can't as a collective group get the job done, changes need to be made and players need to be moved so that the team can win the ultimate prize. No more excuses. I'm not a kid anymore. It's time the team be run by adults instead of junior high girls fighting over a boy.
So we need to qualify something’s here. It’s possible to make the playoffs and still have a the season and post season leave a bad taste in the mouths of everyone. If the Canucks don’t make the playoffs it had better be under exceptional circumstances and if they do they better look half decent I’m not even saying a first round victory just saying that they make it look good
if they miss the playoffs then pete should take ‘em to the cleaners (*demand $40mill/season…”*ooops, what’s that? U can’t pony up that kind o’ cash? awww, too bad:( well, looks like i’m signing with a contender, for way less than 40mill obviously, then” -says his cutthroat agent
Will they be better this year, its possible, we can all hope. Will it be enough for the playoffs? I doubt it, they will fight it out with Calgary and maybe Seattle and the central Division for that 2nd wild card. But the fact of the matter is, if you look at the future.
– No cap space
– Terrible prospect pool
– Mediocre players, at best, besides a few really good ones
Not exactly a recipe for Stanley cup champion
Just liked Bure
No. Literally he is under control for this and next.
He has seen how many players have come and gone in only a few years, and he is probably tired of it. Many that have gone, just wanted to pick up a paycheque and that was the priority, like Virtanen. The second point I will make is money. Too many players give you an all star performance just before contract time. They sign for big money, and don't produce. Because of this, most teams do not pay based on your last season, but rather your last few. Petey knows if he does even better, than he can not only see if the team is gonna be a future contender, but also get a premium price for a long term contract no matter where he signs (see Horvat)
