Petterssen is more of a center that Gaunce

Gaunce is a C who plays wing.
EP has yet to cut his teeth as a Pro.
Playmaker wise no comparison

I agree that your scenario is a bit dramatic, but short answer, yes I believe Benning will try to trade Gagner and Eriksson or Hutton or Stecher...absolutely believe that.

I actually like Sutter and think as of this season he fits well, but if he is outplayed then yes he will also go on the market.

Now the real question is who determines if the vets are outplayed....Green, Lefty, you?

Does anyone know when exactly Hughes/Canucks will make a decision on whether he plays here or university next year?

Do you really believe that? What if, and this is worst case (best case) scenario: Goldobin, Leipsic, Gaudette, Pettersson, Juolevi and Hughes all demonstrate that they are ready to play in the NHL AND Virtanen, Baertschi, Granlund, Boeser, Horvat and Gaunce all take a step forward proving they still belong.

Add in the three new UFA’s and you have 13 forwards and 10 D.

Are they going to trade Sutter, Gagner and Eriksson?

Obviously this scenario is dramatic, but I just don’t believe that Sutter, Eriksson, Gagner, Beagle, Rousel, Schaller, Baertschi or Horvat are competing for a spot. It’s theirs. You can put Boeser in that group even though he wouldn’t require waivers.

I completely understand where you are coming from. Thank you for articulating my anxieties and frustration more eloquently than I can. Along the lines of my mixed messages narrative.

Don’t see that as helping Hughes.
Nothing to gain contract wise.
Whats to learn in NCAA vs AHL or NHL?

Of course he wants to win lol
TG will want pros whether its vets or kids.
He’s not all about himself & works with JB on probably many things.

Thanks.
You could have kept your Croatia hysteria to yourself as well but I respect your right to wave pom-poms.

As much as I’m not much of a Botchford fan that article reaffirms what Benning has stated, and also mentions Gagner, Eriksson, and Sutter needing to change their offseason training regime or they will be traded or waived.

It is a start in the right direction in my opinion, hope he continues with this hardass attitude.
