Players are allowed to do it. It's collusion when it's management/ownership.

Player's aren't billionaires

I am going to guess that your QH is pretty spot on, but I'll swing for the fence with a 9.25 x 8 on EP.

Feel like EP would want $10.5M plus on an eight year deal but I could be wrong.

Because they keep signing bridge deals.

AZ been doing this for 10 years, they suck, and they are proof the 'trade for draft picks' doesn't always work.

They are buying a new arena . They have new management . Quite possible they are trying to change things.

No guess

I don't mind Pouty, but would take the best power forward in the game today, Brady, over Pouty, who sometimes looks like Bambi on ice, all day, everyday.

You just said you thought EP $10.5 million x 8 years.

Any guesses on the contracts before it's released today or tomorrow?

My guess Petey at 8.25m over 5 years, and hughes at 7.5m over 8 years.
- pker2theend

Hughes 3/6m
Petey 8/9.75m

Any contract over 3 years is an overpay for both. One year sample size isn’t cutting it

Earlier I guessed to reply to a poster.

My offer if GM…
Hughes 2/5m show me
Petey 8/9.25m
Simply where I value them given what has transpired in all ways.

Sides continue to hammer away on deals for Pettersson and Hughes. Hearing new contracts for Canucks could come as soon as tonight.

6 x 7.75 aav for Hughes is being reported by satiar shah.

Glad it is not 8 years .

“Hearing Hughes nearing a 6 year deal worth slightly above $7.75M per year with the Canucks”

Sounds AAV for Pettersson will be under $8 million on a three-year deal.

may be 7.75 each

This seems decent for both parties. QH seems a little high on AAV.
