Agreed. And I would take someone’s 2027 1st or second if needed (and we retain 1/2 to make it more palatable for them)Carl Yagro wrote: ↑Mon Jan 26, 2026 7:38 pm[img]https://media1.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkP ... /giphy.gif[/img

He would be a borderline reclamation project of our own though as he will be 23 this year, his development has been slow.
Subpar and inconsistent until last year, which was decent as you point out. This year he's struggling again. I'll admit, after the last 8 years with EP40, I'm gun shy to take a chance on a player that clearly had some head issues (which is what I think is the crux of Pettersson's struggles).....in Wright's case they seemed to manifest after dropping in the draft.
40 enters this because dbr mentioned this as a trade centered around Pettersson for Wright and Seattle's 1st.
Now while on the topic, perhaps a ‘hockey trade’ of a DeBrusk or Brock for Wright straight up. All need a change of scenery and a different system. Could be argued our need for a center off sets thier need for a proven scorer..
