I don't see the Canucks needing to do this deal, unless they plan on signing Petey and Hughes to long term contracts. I could believe that one of the two might go long term (likely Petey), but one or both will probably bridge for a lot lower.
Regarding the trade, I'm a fan of Derek Grant, the guy can play. He's on a good contract at $1.5M/yr, but I don't see offering two 3rd rounders plus Pearson and MacEwan. Neither of those two players have negative value, and the Canucks would be taking on Kesler's salary (unless it's insured, then forget this entire conversation). Grant for Pearson straight up?...sure. Grant for MacEwan + 3rd rounder?....sure. The rest of the package? Too much.
