August 23 2023 - Frank Corrado & Jeff Paterson
from Sekeres & Price Show
Matt and Blake discuss the big news from Sweden: Elias Pettersson will not be signing a contract extension with the Canucks before the season. They go over the implications for this season and beyond, wonder about the reasons, talk about the offshoots -- can he be named captain in this environment -- as well as parsing the good news about his love for Vancouver and the fishbowl of playing in a hockey market.Jeff Paterson gives us his reaction to Elias Pettersson's comments, reminds us of the last time he played out a contract and awaited an extension, tells us what that means for the Canucks and explains why he's not yet worried that Petey will leave like Tkachuk in CGY, Dubois in WPG and DeBrincat in OTT.Frank Corrado is even more optimistic for Canucks fans. He says he has "zero" concern that Pettersson will leave, believing that this is solely about getting off to a good start to the season, unlike the last two. Frank allows that there are positive and negative interpretations to the comments, and that direction of the team is going to be big in getting him signed long-term.
