Brooks: the only reason Chytil was available was because of his health. You never know when his next shift is going to be his last shift.

Rutherford acknowledged the team misses Ian Cole and Nikita Zadorov. Rutherford is "mystified" by the accusation that Canucks disrespected Zadorov during the negotiation process.

Demko’s game hasn’t surprised Rutherford (a former NHL goalie). He says players who miss camp often have a slow start and usually get injured again.
“He’ll be okay... he has a lot of talent and it’s still there.”

Gary Mason: Rutherford told me he warned Pettersson when he signed his $93M, 8yr extension that it would make things harder... He’d have to be more prepared, mentally and physically. EP116 didn’t come into camp at that level but now he gets it.

Rutherford to Gary Mason:
“There is no playbook for this, so, you don’t know if any of us have done everything we can. I’m satisfied that he [Tocchet] has spent as much time as possible on the situation, meeting after meeting after meeting trying to resolve this."

Bruce also says management suggesting to move Quinn Hughes to Center was coming from an analytical point of view and it's not out of character for a general manager to make all sorts of recommendations throughout a season.
"They didn't like our exists in our zone."

Friedman: The Canucks are definitely, definitely looking at the market for both players and you should be prepared for three outcomes (neither get dealt, one of them, or the other gets dealt).

Seravalli says “I think there's a lot more teams than [Buffalo]. I'd keep an eye on Carolina. They tried to acquire Pettersson before he ended up re-signing.”
“I'd keep an eye on a few other teams, even some teams that aren't currently in the playoff picture.”

Oilers radioman Bob Stauffer:
“People in Vancouver have mentioned: ‘Pettersson getting $3.6M more than JT Miller’ and ‘who plays with Hughes’ as possible rift issues.”
Seravalli: “Not even a little bit.”
Stauffer: “That’s your take.”

Per Kypreos, JT Miller, he believes, has one destination he would waive his NMC to make a trade happen and that is the New York Rangers.
He thinks the trade is JT Miller for Zibanejad (plus extra pieces around it) as the major pieces.
