Canucks decline. Matheson isn’t a fit for Vancouver. He’s an offensively-minded defenceman man who generates most of his value from the PP. Canucks already have two guys who fill that role and are much better players in Hughes and Hronek. Matheson wouldn’t get PP time in Vancouver, which would significantly limit the value he can provide. Then there’s also the issues between him and Pettersson, and I highly doubt you’d want to bring in a guy your superstar RFA hates. On top of that, Lekkerimaki is untouchable and won’t be traded under pretty much any circumstances. Deal just doesn’t make sense from Vancouver’s perspective in an way.
