Part of what would complicate a Pettersson trade is the fact that he has a no-move clause in his contract. To trade him, Canucks management would have to discuss with Pettersson’s team regarding whether he’d waive the clause or not.

Vancouver Canucks centre Elias Pettersson continues to be in trade rumours, and now his agent has stepped in with a comment.

Chytil, 26, has appeared in just 72 combined games across the past two and a half seasons, dating back to the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs. With one year remaining on his contract and a $4.4375 million cap hit, Chytil will have to demonstrate that he’s going to be able to stay in the lineup to be moveable at this juncture.

Could the departure of top Vancouver Canucks centreman Elias Pettersson be coming sooner than anyone thought possible? Amidst the Canucks’ rapid pivot to a rebuild, one thing is becoming clear: the team is open to offers on any of their core players if the price is right.

The Vancouver Canucks traded right winger Kiefer Sherwood to the San Jose Sharks in exchange for a 2026 second-round pick, a 2027 second-round pick and defenseman Cole Clayton. Seeing Sherwood get traded was not surprising in the slightest. The pending UFA forward was the subject of trade rumors for months as the Canucks sit in the league basement.

Elias Pettersson's days with the Vancouver Canucks could be numbered, but what could some of the rumoured suitors actually offer?
