That contract pushes the price Vancouver is going to have to pay Petterssen higher. Nylander and Petterssen have basically identical counting stats since 2018-19, Petterssen is 3 years younger and plays C as opposed to RW.
Those 3 years and the value of a centre over a winger has to be worth at least the 1.5 million per year that will make Petterssen's contract the highest cap-hit in the league.
