[Report] Canucks re-sign Pettersson to 8 year contract @ $11.6M


Recommended Posts

The future:

 

Of course with Petey signed, Allvin has his most important contract done and can now turn to others.  Who's the next priority?

 

  1. Hronek
  2. Joshua
  3. Blueger
  4. Zadorov
  5. Lindholm
  6. DeSmith
  7. Myers
  8. Cole 
  9. Lafferty
  10. Friedman

Joshua, Hronek, Big Z

DeSmith, Blueger, Myers, Cole, Lindholm

Lafferty, Friedman

Chances of Lindholm being signed are very low. Hronek likely next in line. IMO.

The rest can wait. Maybe Myers if he is going to do a senior deal $800k for 4 years? That would be nice to know before TDL.

But the rest can prove themselves by getting us a CUP first.

$11.6 million is a hometown discount?  Seems like he got paid on par with market value (not a bad thing, but I'm not seeing much of a discount here).

 

Like I said - I'm happy that we've got a good young Center that is locked up for the next 8 years.  

 

Pettersson is currently the 4th best player on the team, and is bordering on being a franchise level star.  

 

He has that potential - we saw it during the first 10 games of the seasons, and periodic flashes after that.  

 

Having said that, he's going to need to step up if he wants to live up to this new contract.  

 

Hopefully, with the contract distraction in the rear view mirror now, we can see the Elias Pettersson that we saw during the 2nd half of the 2021/2022 season.....or the Pettersson that we saw during the first 10 games of this season.  

I think it is a bit of a discount. Nylander set the market with his extension at 11.5×8. Nylander is older, a winger, and has a career high in points of 87 (though he'll exceed that this year). Pettersson is younger, a center, and has a career high of 102 points (and on a similar pace this season). Petey should likely command 500k more (rough guess) than Nylander on the open market.

At first glance, it’s easy to see the relief in Petey’s demeanour and tone. I’m sure all of the buzz around the situation was draining. 
 

It’s what happens in the immediate future that really has my interest to be honest. To me, the signing puts an actual value on his performance which, until now, has been not been a primary issue. Living up to the 7.3 he’s been receiving will certainly be a cakewalk in comparison to the new bar set. I think anything less than peak Petey over the last twenty games and playoffs, will get the collective tongues in the market wagging, likely uncontrollably. 
 

Nothing like putting an even bigger target on one’s back. I’m hoping for the best for the young man.
