Big win tonight. And Quinn Hughes isn’t just a special player, he is a special person. He’s got #EP40’s back.
#EP40 on the breakaway and rips a wrister, high & short side, just to see it go inside post and out. Feels symbolic of his season thus far. 😒

According to #TheHockeyNews, #Vancouver considers moving #JTMiller or #Pettersson.
A possible destination for Pettersson is apparently #Anaheim. I doubt Vancouver wants to trade Petterson to another #PacificDivision team, but if they do, I see EP40 enjoy life with Leo Carlsson for quite some time.
Another speculation was Miller to the #NYR, where Vancouver gets Zibanejad if they both agree to such moves. I’m not sure what Z adds to Vancouver, but I rather lose Miller, a 31yo with an expensive 5yr deal, who is already struggling and has a reputation for breaking new prospects’ balls to stay relevant, than a 26yo, who needs “to mature.” I mean, if Miller stays, what will he do to the next kid Vancouver brings up?
Pettersson in Anaheim, however… getting his old role back might just “mature” him faster than Vancouver can say, “WTF?!”
Would they move EP40 for Mika? I’m sure the NYR takes that deal all day but would it help the #Canucks? 🤷♂️
So… In March 2024, the Canucks signs Pettersson to a $92,800,000 contract over 8 yrs after he has been in the organization since 2018…. Nine months later, Pettersson lacks maturity?
Forget Miller. Last time I heard the name was at a dull bbq with beer that had to be kept ice cold because at its true flavor it was undrinkable. Miller, Coors, Bud… same shit, different can. It’s a no-issue.
$92,800,000, however, is quite an issue.
- EP came off a 100+ pt season, firing pucks from the wing, to make a living at 176lbs in front of the net, trying to bat down wristers from Quinn Hughes whenever he decides to part with the puck, and the “experts” wonder why EP’s “production” is down. 🤔
My question is WHAT WAS CANUCKS’ VISION WHEN SIGNING EP TO 8YRS AT $92.8M?
[If you signed EP to trade, maybe not bill him as immature now. 🤷♂️]
