More excuses about Petterson — "had a tough summer" "didn't train the way he wanted" "had an injury" "had ups and downs" —- the same old BS Yadda Yadda I've been hearing all season. I'm a longtime Canucks fan going back to the WHL pre-expansion days and I've never seen this level of hype excuses about such a disappointing player. I'm not buying into it. The sad truth about Petterson is, he is a great and talented player —- but he is NOT worth $11.6 million. He will never be a team-leading franchise superstar on the level of all the other elite NHL superstars. He's currently down at #134 in the NHL goals/assists stats. Garland and Boeser and Hughes are ahead of him. With his contract status, Petey should be up at Hughes' level in the Top 20. He might get a few more goals/assists, but this season is basically done for him. Are fans supposed to buy into the hype that "next season he'll show us he's worth the big money?"
3:38 as long as Quinn isn't carrying the missed chance to play at 4 Nations with his brother, but he seems mentally solid enough to be able to focus forward.
I wonder how much influence Pat had on Canucks management in keeping his two personal clients in Van and giving the heart of the team the boot. Yes I'm still a little bitter
Both Sidney Crosby and Quinn Hughes had injuries that prevented them from playing prior to the Four Nations club… Hughes has decided to skip the tourney while Sid has decided to play… I fear this means Hughes' injuries are actually quite serious, especially considering that Sid appeared to have a "procedure" done and is still able to play after…
If Myers can handle it, and it looks like he can, he can be the perfect partner for Hughes simply for protection. In the playoffs Hughes was not himself because he was battered to bits. With Myers there you have someone 'uge to protect him with the added bonus of freeing up Hronek's offensive game to be the stud on the second pair.
Jesus.. Dhali is a perfect example of why people and players hate the media.. what a stupid question… "is hughes going to go play with his brothers in 2 years" "yes Dhali he is"
Like what answer do you expect to get for that dumb ass question?
Pat – your client said he was waiting to see if the franchise was serious about making the playoffs then extorted Vancouver for one of the highest salary contracts in professional hockey – he got 11.6 million x 8 – he then disappeared after the all-star game and was awol in the playoffs – he played video games all summer instead of leveling up – he showed up soft and weak , and when called out by JT Miller for the lack of preparation – demanded that JT get traded
He better get back to old Petey asap. Last game was a positive sign.
All player agents are freeloading parasites!! Just more people who figured out how to screw the system, and feed off of other people's talent. Of course he's going to say Pettersson is worth the ENORMOUS overpayment.

Peterson didn't have a surgery tho so why the comparison….he only has pretendenitis 😂
I just hope Hughes signs in 2 Years
Thats all i care about
Also they should have kept Miller and traded Petey
Hes not even worth $9 MILL
$18m x 8 years this summer, give it to him
Donnie and dhali should be on SN full time

I wonder if the Canucks paid Peterson 15m a year, would he score 10 more goals?…..
