LATEST | Canucks' President Jim Rutherford finally gives his take on the Pettersson signing and trade offer from Carolina
''Everyone can talk about the different scenarios. If he doesn't sign, well, you can make a trade and get a good return, but you'd never get a good enough return on a special player like Pettersson. You could shake it down in whatever way you want. You just don't.''
''They're hard to find, to me, he's a generational player in our organization, and when you have a guy that's going to get you 100 points every year unless he has a bit of an off-year or gets hurt. You just can't replace that kind of player. He's coming into his prime now. And it was just a big relief for the organization and I'm sure a relief for him. Regardless of how much you say you don't want to think about it until the offseason, it still sits somewhere there in your mind''
