Petterssen and Nylander statistically about the same. So you can look at $11.5/yr depending on term and length.

I think that's where his next contract was trending regardless. Now that Nylander is signed, it's basically guaranteed. I wouldn't be surprised if his agent asks for a bit more, perhaps $12.0M. From everything we've seen from Petey, I think vast majority of fans will agree he's worth it. These kinds of numbers also make JT's contract look a lot better for value.

TML are $10mill over the cap now and relying on nearly $13mill in IR relief to even exist at this point... not sure what their plan is tbh. Everyone on IR just happens to get healthy why playoffs start like TBL and then figure it out in the offseason?

It's a cheat code that the league allows so.... yeah. Until they deem it's unacceptable, it's a strategy. They'll probably find some kind of way to grandfather in a penalty for the Canucks too  | |

I have so much anxiety about the Canucks ever winning a cup that I feel like even if it ever does happen in my lifetime, somehow it will get reversed. Like Bettman will come down and grab the mic and say actually upon video review a previous game is being changed and the other team wins and he tells the mullet dude to hand the Cup to them instead.

We used to joke about that in my circle of closest friends and it was super funny until 2 of them died in the last couple years  | |

Just once... | That's what I want as well, especially doing it before the Leafs do it. being the first Canadian team to win the cup in 30 years would be epic.

It's literally the only time I ever say I would be happy to just be the Calgary Flames because at least they've won a cup

Petey will get 11.5-12 is my guess without a doubt. Need to get Zadorov and Hronek locked in if we are expecting to do anything in the next few years

^ It's not a great thing imo because where other teams get rest, our top players are still traveling and playing and not getting a break. That video posted in the last page where the player was planning to go to San Diego for a small getaway? Yeah that kind of sucked.

it's a 3 day thing and less intensive than a practice. they'll be fine. i believe the entire break is 9 days long anyway.

The commentator was saying the record so far this year ties 2010/2011 as the Islander game is the halfway mark. I'm hoping for a run

If the Canucks stay healthy anything is possible. I would expect Allvin to make a move here quickly if they plan to go all in. The sooner a move is made the less the Canucks should hopefully pay since the trade deadline is still 2 months away.

Team needs to stay healthy and continue to play consistently.
Damn, even Myers scored a goal last night against the Islanders.

The year that Canucks decide to be an impressive contender, the Jets are on top of the league standings ... Canucks not even the best team north of the 49th!
Maybe ... this is the year a Canadian team wins the SC.

Such a bummer the Jets are not in the Eastern Conference. A Canucks vs Jets finals would have Canada pumping, but also probably most of Canada rooting for the Jets.

2 Canadian teams in the SCF can still happen ... oh, but the Leafs have to get past round 2 first ... .
