Bourne: “Really?”
Seravalli: “Now, that feels type of quick, however the Canucks have been within the spot where they’re able to and willing to think about anything and the whole lot, just about, throughout the course of their organization.
And I believe the opposite part is, the markets that we’ve just talked about, which is, take a look at the deal signed for (Christian) Dvorak and (Alexander) Wennberg. $5.15 million for Dvorak and $6 million for Wennberg.
And unexpectedly, you switch around, and also you take a look at Elias Pettersson, you say, if we consider it is a guy that we will rejuvenate, get his profession going again with a change of scenery, unexpectedly, $11.6 million a 12 months doesn’t sound like a crazy risk profile.”
Bourne: “What would Carolina have quit for him?”

Seravalli: “I believe Carolina is, is certainly one of a handful of teams immediately that has been burning up the Canucks. I believe the expression of interest, and significant interest at that, has really ratcheted up in a big way for, for Vancouver. That they’re attempting to have to take a look at this in a serious way immediately.”
