Pettersson wasn't whining, the media wasn't being negative. The only whining I see is people whining about either the comment or the media spinning it. It was a direct translation of a player saying he wants to win and everyone is spinning it to fit whatever narrative they have. Bunch of drama queens.

Hughes contract comparables….

Barrie 3/4.5m on the low end
Krug 7/6.5m more middlin end
Makar 6/9m on similar age but more complete

Barrie/Krug on their last contracts being 30 yrs old & Makar on imo a fair contract. So I’d think 3/6m or 6/7-7.5m or 8/7.5-8m.

Thanks Codes! Apparently you’re not allowed to report any news unless it’s positive. “I want to play for a winner” should be positive news, but the slurpers don’t want to admit that the Canucks are a tire fire in the front office, so it’s spun as Petey is an entitled brat.

Umm, can't he be saying I want to be in Vancouver and I want to play for a winning team...so interpretation "we are going to make Vancouver a winning team".

Seems pretty self explanatory to me, what does slurpers have to do with any of this

I don't know what you or Codes are reading or if it is Twitter you are talking about ? I haven't seen hardly anything in here about people complaining ? I think Petey will sign here like what I posted this morning saying we will get it done.

Everything I seen on Twitter it is the Slurpers telling people to settle down it is nonsense.

For sure. It always works out better when the inmates run the Asylum lol

Schmidt and Eder bailing... good one.

- LordHumungous


They totally bailed, of course they did; neither wanted back, if they did, they'd probably still be with team.

It's not an asylum, it's a poorly run hockey team - there is more professionalism and competence on the ice than in the GM/Owner's box. And if it continues this way more players will be out...

You may want to change the name of your favorite team if you are going to go laugh at bailing.

That’s what I’m saying. It should be a positive story. Petey is a Canuck, wants to play for a winner. End of story. But the people who portray the media as negative, or complain that the fans (whiners) complain too much are spinning it as Petey being soft or whatever and they want to drive him to the airport because he doesn’t want to be here.

You don’t see how they are creating their own angst?

I know some of the top slurppers on there and they are mostly saying "settle down folks" .

It reminds me of when Myers was going to sign and Ricky D had everyone freaking out that it was going to be 7x8.

Bunch of drama queens is right.

I'm surprised that one of the queens didn't call him a coward.

It’s a madhouse. Best not to engage. I just lurk for ammo against you lot. This way when I call you a slurper I’m comparing you to the most insane fans on Twitter.
