Saran 1 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) I see no reason why the vancouver canucks traded Matt Cooke, a fan favorite player who certainly brought a lot of spice to the canucks game to get Matt Pettinger?!

datsyukonethree 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 Pettinger is younger with better offensive upside. I guess they thought they didn't need Cooke with Burrows and Kesler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saran 1 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 they may need a better offensive player but i don't think pettinger will be a factor at all by looking at how his season has been going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
