Elias Pettersson - 2022 NHL Draft Prospect Profile - The Hockey Writers NHL Entry Draft Latest News, Analysis & More

Elias Pettersson is a well-rounded two-way defenceman from Sweden. He has an excellent shot for a defenceman, which he uses regularly.

thehockeywriters.com

Elias Pettersson is a Swedish defenceman who plays a well-rounded two-way game. Not to be confused with his fellow Swede who has the exact same name (center for the Vancouver Canucks), this Elias Pettersson plays defence and is much bigger than his namesake.

Pettersson played most of this season with the U20 team for Örebro where he was excellent, scoring 10 goals and earning 18 points over 37 games. He managed to play in 17 Swedish Hockey League (SHL) games later in the season but was rarely given consistent ice time. He earned one assist in those games but did flash a bit of his offensive potential despite being such a young player in one of the world’s best professional hockey leagues.

Elias Pettersson²

 

[PG Canuck]

Petey is so good we cloned his ass and made him a dman

Allvin is a genius

 

[RanOutOfTime]

I have to re read this thread title a few times.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Total troll job.

 

[Gus Adams]

I approve

 

[Grub]

Thought NHL tracker glitched when it said EP. LOL

Faber's write up; The Vancouver Canucks can draft another Elias Pettersson: Scouting with Faber #4

 

[Jay Cee]

I wonder if that is going to cause some confusion when they engrave the cup.

 

[PuckMunchkin]

First round obvious Brock Boeser replacement.

3rd round we get our Elias Pettersson replacement!

 

[Hollywood Burrows]

this should not be allowed

 

[y2kcanucks]

Should have drafted Vilardi....

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

take that, greg c adams

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Bruh

 

[Canucks LB]

I literally laughed out loud when I saw the pick

What’s everybody’s opinion on the actual Player

 

[Lindgren]

Is this not a case of "going off the board"? Wasn't he ranked much lower?

 

[StickShift]

Drafted for spare parts??

Seriously though, he looks like a nice add to our defense prospects.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

Don't mind picking a defenseman with a good shot here. We simply do not get enough goals from our back end and lack a defender with a big Slapshot

GOAT tier name though I can't imagine what it's going to be like if we makes the show and we have two of them

 

[CRDragon]

Slated mid-late rounder, interesting we picked him up quite early

 

[wonton15]

This had to be at least partially a troll pick lol

Now we need to obtain the Ahos

 

[Tim Calhoun]

If either Elias Pettersson is ever traded, it would be funny to hear the trade call with the NHL offices and see which team is insistent that the right player is being registered.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

I would swing for the fences with Edmonds at 112.

Overager, but had a huge season in the OHL.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Drafted for spare parts??

Seriously though, he looks like a nice add to our defense prospects.

What defense prospects? Our highest touted D prospect Jett Woo was used as a winger last year. Do you mean Beeeezbahhhh?
