not for that

It was the core of the package per insiders. Maybe throw in Chatfield too.

I feel like I should be apologized to by Canucks fans.

My offers have been far better

Honestly, this kind of seems light for EP. Kk is barely producing and still has 7years left

ik but they're gonna have to add more to get him

Like who?

one of their d prospects

Can’t imagine it’d be anything less than Necas + Morrow + multiple 1sts of an extension is part of the deal

I'm not really familiar with Koivunen beyond what I found out just now by clicking on his name, but Sens probably accept, assuming this is a scenario where they don't get offered a 1st for him by anyone else

I don't think so no, this was probably just used as a negotiation tactic from Vancouvers pov i don't think they were close at all

Necas, Morrow, 2 firsts and KK if they want him included. Maybe Drury as well.

Canes don’t touch that tarasenko deal

As Van fan that would be a dream return. I'd say Necas and Morrow would be the main interests. KK as a young guy with term and being a Center makes sense. I'd say 1 guaranteed 1st and A conditional puck could make sense for both teams. Though Petey isn’t going to be dealt until after the season either way.

The Carolina-Vancouver trade is ridiculous
Petey is off-limits.

I don’t think these details would have came out if it wasn’t dead

Vancouver was considering trading him to Carolina (or were using it as a catalyst to open contract negotiations again).
That suggests he isn't as off-limits as you would think. Management is serious about wanting a commitment from him now, likely to be able to project cap space for any moves beyond a rental they may consider at the current deadline.
If Pettersson doesn't sign by the deadline, it may hurt Vancouver's chances to add for a run this year. (As an example, maybe they are trying to see if they can fit a Guentzel extension instead of going after a rental.)
It's unlikely he gets moved given where Vancouver is at currently, but if he refuses to extend they may be less aggressive at the deadline and trade him in the off-season.

As for whether the Canes could still get Pettersson if negotiations don't pan out, it's possible, but once Pettersson's availability is confirmed there may be higher offers sent in from other teams.
