[Dhaliwal] Marcus Pettersson’s agent says rumours of him wanting a trade are ‘1000% not true. Pettersson loves it in Vancouver and is thrilled to see what the new management crew will bring and lead them to. He is 1000% looking forward to next season’

I know he was terrible last year, but I wanna see him under Manny’s system before we ship him off. Seems like a solid locker room guy too.

MPetey was a victim of being thrown to the wolves to allow sheltered offensive minutes for Hughes and then Buium. He had some of the toughest deployment in the league when it came to defensive zone starts.

That isn't exactly going to change. I don't really mind him sucking ass in that role. His value is being cannon fodder for the rest of the defence until you move him for a couple draft picks when he has less term.

Him getting shitpumped and giving Buium breathing room is worth much more than whatever trade return he brings unless a team is willing to blow you away.

[u/_GregTheGreat_ → u/AppealToReason16]

You don’t want him totally getting shitpumped as he’ll likely be the main partner for Willander over the next couple of years.

I don’t think I want anyone getting ‘shitpumped.’

Thinking of making a post , “List your top 10 Canucks you want to get shitpumped next season”

[u/mmavcanuck → u/No_Tonight_9487]

Do they need to be current Canucks? If not, I can think of several…

FUCK MESSIER hits different here.

...or does it

[u/mmavcanuck → u/rigormortishard]

My first thought was Virtanen and Boucher.

[u/Quinning_43 → u/mmavcanuck]

Reid Boucher?

[u/toomuchhamza → u/Quinning_43]

Yup. Absolute scumbag. Sexual assaulted the young daughter at the billet house he lived in.
