Also, let's remember what their former head coach recently mentioned:
»It is a problem, and I knew they had a little bit of a problem between them before I got there, but I thought that was all straightened out and everything. So, I'm hoping it was a coincidence..
If there's a rift in the locker room, it's up to the coach in all of these situations. I know the coach is the easy one to move but it's up to him to read the room, and if something is wrong, to fix it and to fix the room and bring the guys in and talk to them about it."
- Former Canucks head coach Bruce Boudreau
In short, it feels like the end for one of these two players, especially as David Pagnotta has just officially confirmed that the Canucks are listening to offers for Pettersson:
A concrete trade proposal for the Montreal Canadiens and the Vancouver Canucks involving four players, including Elias Pettersson
All of this has indeed led the excellent page NHL Watcher to come up with a concrete offer.
Obviously, the price to pay for a 100-point young center is very high.
«Elias Pettersson to Montreal, let's do it.
Give them Dach,
Owen Beck, Mailloux, and a first-round pick or a similar package; that should do the trick.»
Would you make such a transaction if you were in charge of the Montreal Canadiens instead of Kent Hughes?
To Montreal:
Elias Pettersson
Pettersson, 26 years old, has 28 points in 34 games this season, after recording 89 points last season and 102 points in the campaign prior.
Personally, I think it's a think carefully situation because Pettersson is truly an exceptional player, possibly one of the five most talented in the National Hockey League, but it's also a steep price to pay.
