On a seperate note: Huberdeau($10.5M until 2031, age 31-38) for Pettersson($11.6M until 2032, age 26-33), 1 for 1, who says no? It could be a great buy low option, capitalizing on a pretty good season from Huberdeau. I doubt Huberdeau would want to go to VAN though.

#1 centers are hard to get but I don't think Pettersson is that guy. They usually come with warts but his seems like the worst of the bunch that have been traded previously and hard to fix.
He was called out by his GM during the season, the coach just gave out a laundry list of issues with him.
On the other hand, Huberdeau is getting praise from everyone and how important he was to the team and the young players.
Huberdeau was buried by his coach in year 1 and has had trouble producing but has never blamed anyone.
Pettersson takes zero accountability.
