You're not going to be able to trade Marcus Pettersson, or at the very least, I don't think you should until you're able to recoup some of the value there.
Zeeb Booyam isn't going anywhere.
Elias Pettersson isn't going anywhere.
So if...
I don't know.

Yeah.
I'm not saying long-term.
He had a really tough year.
There's a long way to go before we can say that.
I definitely wouldn't go that far.
But when I look at this season, I do look at, like, I just think the environment is going to be better.
And I think a lot of young players struggling, especially when we saw that young player play well the year prior,
can be put on the environment and then some of it is due to him and and yes he needs to be better this season but i do think he should be given a decent opportunity to you know have have something work for him at the nhl level especially with a new head coach presumably manny malhotra who he has experience with and has played well under you know leading the way here in vancouver
But I do agree.
I'm not like, oh, man, this guy's going to be here for five years after this.
Yeah, and I do think, I mean, you brought up the defense side of it.
I do think that's why you don't have to trade Filiponic this offseason, but it does, it adds a level of intrigue to me of like, how much of a spot do you want to give to Zeb William?
Do you want to ease him into it?
