Matt and Jeff discuss Frank Seravalli's report that Elias Pettersson is now ready to talk extension with the Canucks, and that the sides are considering an eight-year deal. They discuss what brought this about, whether the noise in the market was a contributing factor, fans and media getting anxious, head coach Rick Tocchet musing that it might be a distraction and effected his play, even the surging popularity of J.T. Miller? The guys also discuss the Chris Tanev trade and whether the Canucks missed out, while turning attention to other defencemen on the market. What kind of defenceman they need with Carson Soucy on the comeback trail. The penalties, they are a problem. Tocchet's comments on punishing players who take too many, as well as opposing players snapping their heads and drawing penalties. Canucks once had that rep, is it gone now? Seravalli joins to flesh out his Pettersson report, Frank also talks about the Tanev deal, whether the Canucks were in it until the end, and whether the Flames did well on the return. Frank tells us about the Canucks interest in Minnesota Wild winger Brandon Duhaime, and floats a potential destination for ex-Canuck Tyler Toffoli, who might be on the move by next Friday's trade deadline. Rob Williams stops by and says finally (finally!) we have an indication that Pettersson wants to stay in Vancouver. Rob discuss what fans were saying this week as trade rumours began, while touching on the Tanev deal and the struggles of Elias Lindholm since his acquisition. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.
