RW/C Elias Pettersson - Växjö Lakers HC, SHL (2017, 5th, VAN) Part 3

[thepuckmonster]

No pressure but you’re gonna have to be our saviour, Elias.

Vancouver, can you please win the draft lotto and draft Dahlin? I really want to watch Dahlin and Pettersson on the same team.

As much as we would love this we all know it won’t happen because we never have and likely never will.

 

[Elias Pettersson]

Yeah if the Canucks win the lotto, I will delete my hf account

Elias Pettersson has never played in nhl so he must be a bust

Assist and goal in better quality:

Elias Pettersson is putting up better numbers than anyone else in Sweden has in the past, he is for sure going to be the best Swedish born player ever.

I be shocked if he doesnt put up over 90p in nhl one day

I won't be shocked if he puts up over 90 points. I wouldn't bank on it though.

 

[pomx]

That OT goal is crazy! He has put highlight after highlight reel goals all season. There’s a reason he’s the number 1 prospect not in the NHL. Future is bright !

O God yes now two major reasons we need to win the lottery

Now if we could also get you to take that deal we'd really be set.

Now if we could also get you to take that deal as we'd really be set.

That would be bad for hfboards Im too popular check out all my likes

I also expect him to put up big numbers in his prime but that might still take a few years due to him currently having zero NA experience and he is also quite skinny which could mean some struggle at first. But sure with his IQ and skillset, there is a good chance he won't have big problems adjusting.

I'm just saying if Pettersson doesn't put up good numbers next year in NHL, you will have some explaining to do for some people because you've been quite vocal about how he is already better than Hischier and what not.

I said one day and not next year

 

[Hokinaittii]

You think people will have that kind of patience and they won't come asking you about why Pettersson isn't producing immediately like Hischier did when Pettersson was supposed to be better than him?

 

[Peeps]

I think between 60-95 is a good window

I wouldn't be too surprised if Pettersson puts up some pretty special numbers next year even with his slight of frame.

I only say this because he'll most likely be slotted in on the wing with Horvat and Boeser. Both those guys have the ability to do the hard work on the boards and the talent to create space. If he plays with them I can see him putting up some solid numbers simply because he has so much talent even though he is still young and skinny AF.

Finlands gonna 'Finland'

In theory that would be the perfect line. An elite playmaker/puck carrier in Pettersson, an elite sniper in Boeser, and Horvat as the hard forechecking/backchecking gritty drive the net guy.
However, I'd prefer Pettersson to play center so we can eventually get Horvat to 2C. Dahlen-Pettersson-Boeser would be a good line in a few years.

Ideally Pettersson ends up a center but I highly doubt that would happen for quite a few years until Pettersson has gotten strong enough

What? I don't have anything against the player. You probably missed my post from last page and therefore also the context.

 

[TeddyBare]

Very Nice Goal

Must young kids would have let it rip without even looking.

He received the pass, lifted his head, found he didn't have a shot and just showed great patience you dont usually see for a rookie in a mens league.

 

[HasbeenHallzy]

I'll be the first to admit I was cheesed when we didn't take Glass. My God am I happy now, what patience and hockey sense this kid has. Just amazing to see the vision and patience he has already

Yeah it go either way in his very first season in the NHL.

I hope you're wrong. I really hope Dahlin goes to a team with some talented players, preferably in the WC.

I'd hate to see him go to a trainwreck like Montreal, who are devoid of offensive talent.

 

[lilmaxo]

Really ? Did karlsson have any support with the sens back then.. on montreal he would have all the space and a monster mentor in weber to do all the things he want.. cant we have a bit of succes to ? I mean , i live in Mtl and the past decade has been awfull to be a mtl a fan.. my favorite player got traded and we have never had any kind of offensive supestar except for kovalev ? And thats 10 years ago .. were due for something nice .. jeez
