Lindholm,Joshua,Zadorov,Boeser Blueger,Myers Should the Canucks shop Petey for a trade ( salary dump) if needed to keep these players on the team? 5 Quote
Iron Fist Posted May 9 Posted May 9 Yes, to get to the playoffs and complain about players not showing up you need consistent regular season performers. we need to add playoff quality depth around him. Quote
Goose Posted May 9 Posted May 9 Im on the record as saying I think Petey will keep improving. I dont view him as a finished product yet. 25 years is still young from a physically maturing standpoint. 2 Quote
HKSR Posted May 9 Posted May 9 Petey's line was the best line on the ice last night (based on analytics). If they keep pushing the play, the goals and points will come. Their line matches up a lot better against EDM than it did NAS. 2 Quote
PhillipBlunt Posted May 9 Posted May 9 While Pettersson has been very underwhelming in the playoffs so far, I do think that it's too early to throw the towel in on the guy. He could use, and I'm sure management is very aware, a linemate that truly compliments his ability. Mikeyev is not that at all. Hoglander can be, but he is getting used to the intensity of the playoffs and should acclimate as things go along. Yesterday, the 2nd line did look quite a bit better, especially Hoglander who was playing more like he used to. Pettersson's defensive game was sound, but it's his offensive acumen that is the gamebreaking talent that awarded him with the big contract. 1 1 Quote

24K Posted May 10 Posted May 10 Did you see him closing out the game last night? Yes we need him. Quote
LaBamba Posted May 10 Posted May 10 I think you have to be an ole silver sack like myself to understand that there are so many ups and downs in your life, especially when you’re in your 20’s. His game is still evolving. He will put it all together in time. Skill doesn’t just disappear. 2 2 Quote
Pianoman Posted May 10 Posted May 10 No! We aren’t trading Pettersson this off-season, nor should we. That’s just ridiculous. Even at his worst he is a valuable asset to this team. We keep him, and we stop talking about trading him. Quote

Peteys single biggest problem is that he is not physically able to create space for himself. hes come along way but hes still way too light for his frame. +20 pounds in the gym this offseason and hes going to be a monster. imagine all that skill, but just being able to skate through people instead of a million dipsydoodles. it would be a giant mistake to give up on a 90 point player who has had 2 incredible seasons despite not being anywhere near his potential physical peak.

ABNuck Posted May 10 Posted May 10 If J.Hughes, Barzal or Stutzle was to be coming back our way, well, I think it'd be hard to say no don't you think? JH - 8.00 X 6 MB - 9.15 X 7 TS - 8.35 X 7 Petey's at 11.600 x 8 soooo...the math maths better. 2 1 Quote
Toni Zamboni Posted May 10 Posted May 10 this thread might do the trick to get Petey going. i see what you did here Quote
