thank you for your input

I gave the Habs 3 elite forwards they need and upgraded the RHD position. All while keeping the main core (Aside from Dach)

That’s a good offer for Pettersson but the Canucks aren’t gonna move him. It’s more about winning than money for him, and he’s got a much better chance of winning in Vancouver than he does in Montreal

I like the bold move for Pettersson, but with that return I think I'd rather just offer sheet him for something the Canucks can't possibly match. Something like a 1x $16.5M and then extend him to something like 8 x $11M during the season. That would be worth 4 1sts in my head
