[Proposal] - Uniting Hughes Brothers


Recommended Posts

This is my first (and probably last) trade proposal. Actually, it's more like - "would you do it?" question. Would you ship Petey and D-Petey (perhaps + another sweetener) to New Jersey for Jack and Luke? While Petey is playing some of the best hockey of his life, Jack to me looks pretty comparable to him.

You think Pettersson = Jack Hughes.  Alright... remind Pat Brisson when he's negotiating the new contract.

 

You also think D-Pettersson = Luke Hughes.  Wow.  A fourth overall pick that's living up to his reputation... for D-Petey and a "sweetener".  Why don't you "sweeten" on up to.... Lekerimakki, four 1st round picks, and your firstborn son...?

I don't think that's bitter. More like realistic. 


Well, 4 1st round picks is already an overpayment. My firstborn - there’s no player in the whole league worth that much 🙂

But what's the motivation for NJ to trade thier captain who is just as productive as Pettersson but has one of the best value contracts in the league?  EP40 isn't signed beyond this year, doesnt seem to be in any rush to commit longbterm, and could potentially be a UFA in a year

 

Luke is doing fantastic on his ELC. Meanwhile D Pettersson isnt even playing in North American sized ice.  Factor in the marketing upside for Jersey having the 2 Brothers.  It's not reasonable to expect them to do the deal for any reason

Petey and Jack aren’t comparable since Jack has a sweetheart cap hit of 8 million that will be locked in for a long time.  Petey, on the other hand, will likely have a 10.5-11 million dollar cap hit from next season onwards.  
 

NJ has Jack and Luke and will likely try and make a big push for Quinn when Quinn becomes a UFA.

 

I have a better chance of dating Elton John than the Canucks do in landing Jack Hughes.
