CanucksFan26 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Maybe he’s tired of the stupid media and wants to be able to focus on playoffs instead of being a distraction. Big props to Petey and management if this is done before the end of March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post -AJ- Posted February 29 Popular Post Share Posted February 29 If it gets done, I'm expecting 12-12.5M with some degree of trade protection somewhere in the deal. Max 100M deal. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Look how the story has changed. Look how some of the posts have changed- and will continue to change in this thread. Going from " He won't negotiate till off season' to "told you all, it'll get done" overnight. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crabcakes Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 He hasn't been playing like a $12M player for some time. Miller is better and consistently has more TOI and scores at a higher rate. He signed for $8M 2 summers ago. What's the new rate for Petey? They showed some highlights of his after the game last night. I wonder where THAT guy is? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24K Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 (edited) 13 minutes ago, Alflives said: 650 was talking about other teams would phone on Petey and Allvin would say we were going to re-sign him. Then the club that phone would call their media rat (in their market) and say they phoned on Petey. Didn’t hear any mention it came from our club. I heard from radio or Fried that it was an internal source. Can't remember. 650 definitely made it a point that Allvin answer was they are going to try to sign him not they will or going to sign him.

The report on 650 was Allvin would answer any call on Petey with we were intending to re-sign the player. They also reported any leaks of these calls came from the team that called us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmon Petey!!!!! He said "sources". Hope it's legit and not just wasting our attention. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller is obviously far better than an $8M player so it's not fair to use that and claim that Petey should be there. Miller's deal was a steal the day he signed if and if he keeps being amazing, it'll be amazing for a long time. The whole idea of paying players based on what other players get is flawed because it assumes that every player is playing exactly equal to their cap hit, which is rarely true. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUSK v2.0 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 34 minutes ago, Dom said: Rutherford/PA pressured him into signing - need to know what we can spend this deadline I suppose. Wouldnt affect what they can spend at TDL but would affect on which UFA's they will be able to re-sign this summer. So they know who they need to move at the TDL for cheaper guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Vanderhoek Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 34 minutes ago, Dom said: Rutherford/PA pressured him into signing - need to know what we can spend this deadline I suppose. If the team is pressuring him to sign, perhaps they are going to have to be throwing more money at him to get it done. Works both ways.

Bardown Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 36 minutes ago, HKSR said: I'm as hard on Petey as anybody, but I do know based on production and comparables, he is worth about $11m to $12m. If it means we can lock him up for 8 years, I'm good with it. He'll be 33 at the end of the deal. Same, I am ok with 12 if its long term. He's good player, and if he's committing most of his career to us, he wipes out my concerns of commitment to this team. I just don't want to see short term at 12...then you may as well move him. 12 mil as the cap increases through his prime, is reasonable, and we are paying up for prime UFA years, so this is normal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were saying that teams that want to stor shit up would do that but they have no sources to back that up. I remember someone from the insider crowd said it was internal. Could be from one of the interviews from a kther show on 650. Maybe I remembered incorrectly. Anyways, doesn't matter, the extra pressure seemed to worked either way 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HorvatToBaertschi Posted February 29 Popular Post Share Posted February 29 My bet on what happened ; Pettersson clearly stated he wanted to wait until the off-season to talk contract as to not be a distraction in the locker room, after what happened with Bo and Miller Canucks are doing extremely well; people start speculating even though Pettersson is doing exactly as he stated Pettersson sees it’s starting to become a distraction and contacts his agent Guys, maybe Petey is actually the great guy we all know he is and actually loves it here in Vancouver and wants to bring us our first ship. 4 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
