Either way he could be stepping into a full rebuild here if Petey is traded then Hughes leaves lol. Can't see why he'd want to remain in Van but we'll see. I think Tocchet will need some assurance from this MNGT group that good changes and roster additions are coming for next season...or it's bye bye time. - LordHumungous
Not even close to a rebuild if EP traded. Hughes isn’t going to bolt & there is no hint of it. Return for EP would have to fix the hole he leaves. So ‘if’ would mean another young top 6 C plus lots more. They are not selling low if at all.
I'm very doubtful someone is going to approach Allvin with an offer that would be worth it. They need high-end centers... and though Petey hasn't played it the past year and a bit, he's the kind of high-end center they need. So shipping him out creates another giant hole that I'm doubtful would be filled with a trade for him.
I feel that he'll right the ship this off-season. Tocc and Allvin have rammed it into him enough he'll do what's needed in the summer. Next year will be 80-90 points, and the season after is when he'll show up as that consistent force again. - NewYorkNuck
Like RT said move his feet & shoot & all will fall into place. The PP has to be more lethal especially consistency. Better faster starts are a must.

I have been consistently saying the same thought, get back to a ppg and getting over a 100 would be a bonus. I also don’t think Pettersson will be traded but only because of what you stated, it wouldn’t be worth it to the club in Pettersson’s current status.
I guess you should probably be labeled as a Pettersson guzzler for having realistic opinions and not being full on trade at any cost mentality.
Welcome to the club. - Makita
You guzzlers are embarrassingly pathetic.
Trade, waive or buyout Pouty, the spoilt, entitled POS.

I'm celebrating a 4:20 Easter. Maybe a beer later if I decide to watch Hockey. Going to the last 3 Royals home games has me a bit hockeyed out. - Load Management
I plan on going Friday. I'd go Thursday as well but it's first round NFL draft
