Who is the Sabres competition to trade for Elias Pettersson?

The Elias Pettersson trade market heated up even more after Canucks President Jim Rutherford basically confirmed his team needs to start over and Pettersson and JT Miller are feuding. With this confirmation that Pettersson is definitely available, Sneaky Joe takes a look at the other teams that could be competing with the Sabres for the Swedish center.

  1. Do we know for sure that JT Miller has Buffalo on his no trade list ? IF not and he 'd accept a trade to Buffalo then I would rather trade for him over Pettersson who to me seems SOFT& UNMOTIVATED not to mention his SCARY ASS contract 11million until 2032.
    Also if you trade a Byram or Power and dont get a D man coming back in the deal you are opening a MASSIVE HOLE on your D . God help us if Henri the Finnish pylon Jokiharju is put on the first D pair with Dahlin.
    I doubt Vancouver would take Norris in a deal because of his injury history.
    Any word on why Adams didnt claim Saad ? Yes he has a cap hit of 4.5 million next season( say goodbye to the injury prone Greenway plus the cap is going up ) but this team desperately needs VETERAN LEADERSHIP and Saad who has won 2 Stanley Cups would fit that bill.

  2. Trading for Elias Pettersson would be the dumbest shit this team has ever done. Give it up already

  3. Gotta like the odds. What do you do when they start chanting for your job?!? Go get the best hockey player available…..you knew you were overpaying BEFORE you knew there wasnt a no move clause…..thats Santa Clause miracle level just when GMKA ordered one.

  4. behind the scene??? everybody in the league knows what is going on with miller and petie. miller just won't let up. rutherford just stated what every G M in the league knows. cozens, power, benson. he'll be gone by march 7. the canes could get petie and let rantenen go after this season.

  5. No thanks to a Pettersson deal! Hopefully Pegula wont allow Adams to make this deal. Let the NEW EXPERIENCED GM make trades and go after UFAs like Mitch Marner or Rantanen this summer! The ONLY trade Adams should be allowed to make is to trade Jokiharju the Finnish Pylon for a 7th round pick. 😊

  6. I dont think its as simple for Vancouver as getting rid of one guy and solving the problem. Youve probably got camps in the locker room, pro-Miller, pro-Petterson, Team Fuck Both of Them, Team Please Cant We All Just Get Along…etc.

    I think the fractures in that room run DEEP.

  7. Quinn Hughes said he doesn't want to be there if they're rebuilding. That may be the biggest road block. If they trade either he might want out as well and at that point it's almost a total tear down for them.

  8. This team needs a new GM, a goaltender that is consistent, and a defense that can clear people from in front of the net, and get the puck out of the zone. Then talk about new forwards.

  9. I don't think Pettersson is worth two first line players. I trade Cozens, 26 1st and one of (Benson, Johnson or Quinn). This Cozen and Byram or Power was just a suggestion on Friedman's part and everybody has run with that. Three good pieces is more than enough in my opinion

  10. Just start with trading Cozens for the best offer around the league. The team gets better the day he is no longer on the ice, dragging down the power play, making his line-mates worse compared to when they are not with him, etc. Just start there.

  11. $11 Million contract and a player who creates locker room issues and WILL demand a trade. Yeah that is a guy we need.

    Exactly why channels like these are useless because they non stop promote dumb trades.

  12. Ill do Clifton, Lafferty AND/OR Kozak for Pettersen AND/OR a draft pick. Preferably higher up draft pick. The higher the better we're talking about Kozak here. Anything else is a hard pass.

  13. Petterson: an ego top heavy Queen putting up 5 more points in 2025 (31, he has 8 less points than Peterka) than Cozens (26), who cant get along with his squad and pouts because he doesn't like Miller and their having a bad year. Yeah lets trade Cozens AND half of the future of our entire defense core for the QUEEN when we're trying to rebuild. Lets completely blow up the rebuild all over again and give away all of our talent. Great plan. Then you'll be here for the next 2 years talking about how bad Adams is after advocating to just throw away the talent he grinded for to acquire.

  14. Power ,Krebbs this guy makes Eichel money to many pieces for as of now is overated this guy, what happens when he plays like Hall we got a good team there to young to be good enough to just put on skates and be good ,were watching this team grow ,it showed against Bosto Kullich is gonna be a star ,same as turkey,dont change shit why now,lets watch this team jel for the next 38 games and see what we got

  15. Canucks aren’t trading Pettersson. Unless they are idiots. He’s too good when he’s on his game. They need to work on getting him back to that and then watch him put up multiple 100 point seasons. Instead of trying to cushion Miller’s line trade Miller and give Pettersson an elite winger.

  16. U r clueless jt miller way better than petterson do some research before u open ur mouth. Yikes. Lost all credibility

  17. Joe you criticized Ottawa when they retired Chris Neil now you’re glad the Sabres are doing Razor. Make up your mind lmaoo 😂
