Carol Schram: Pettersson, Hughes absences loom larger during break between Canucks games With three days off between preseason games, the absences of contractless Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes — and defenseman Travis Hamonic — move further into the spotlight for the Vancouver Canucks.

Well done Carol!!

Waivers today include: Philp/Poolman (CAL); Belpedio/Ouellet (MON).
Dineen/Fasching/Mayo/Speers (ARIZ); Booth (BOS); Cameron Johnson, Rinaldo (CLB); Miska (COL); Bitten, Cramarossa, Turgeon (MIN); Bitetto, Brodzinski, Gettinger, Greco, Kinkaid, Ronning (NYR).

Opt-out deadline, BTW, is tomorrow. Rinaldo being in waivers today…let’s see.

Thanks Carol

Total guess....but I'm hoping EP/QH are waiting to see the hamonic situation. If he's staying, they sign bridge deals at 2-3 years. If he's leaving, its a longer term deal for higher AAV.

Here's to hoping lol

Probably the only player I would make a claim on just to get some size into that 4th line centre spot.

Don't know who he is . There are 4 players listed with that name 3 of them are 6'1 . Don't see anything listed on Minny Cap Friendly

D-Day is tomorrow, one way or another, whether or not Hamonic decides to play or opt-out or retire will be when EP and QH sign. I don't think it matters either way what happens because I'm pretty sure what they sign for will be for whatever capspace is available with Hamonic's contract counting anyways. You can't negotiate a deal based of potential extra cap space being available because that would screw you up big time if Hamonic does indeed decide to play.

I'm thinking both sign bridges for 3 years with EP getting 7.5 x 3 and QH getting 6.75 which would leave us some wiggle room with LTIR and able to maybe get a D to replace Hamonic if he does opt out.

Bob's early choices.

Everything matters, even the smallest details….unless you’re Canucks management over the past 51 years. Then fuck it, we’ll do it our own way and continue to never win.

Thanks Carol! We will likely never know for sure, but I bet if Benning had offered bridge deals that were around, but higher than, Barzal (Pettersson) and McAvoy (Hughes) back in the summer of 2020 he could have gotten deals done.

$5.85 for Hughes would have seemed like a huge over payment at the time, but would be a slight overpayment now.

$7.8 for Pettersson, same thing.

Thankfully we’ve got Tanner locked up though!

Rangers are putting him on waivers.

He used to play for LA.

Younger, larger version of Dowling pretty much.

Hey man...take it easy. We'll reach another cup final then:

I think it’s Sean McIndoe wrote a column for The Athletic about “why the bottom 10 teams will be good”. Basically making a case for each of the worst third of the league. Are the Canucks on that list?
