Prospect Info: Elias Pettersson | Pt. II

[clunk]

As long as he stays around 0.80-1.0 ppg, we should be absolutely thrilled.

We're getting spoiled right now.

 

[GetFocht]

What’s even more impressive is that the next leading scorer on Vaxjo has 8 points.

He’s clearly on another level than any of his teammates while averaging 14 minutes a game.

 

[Nuckles]

Trying to hold my excitement back... tough though. We may have a superstar

If he doesn't single-handedly win us the cup within the next three years he's a bust.

 

[Wo Yorfat]

Lead us into battle Elias

 

[VanJack]

At what point do the downtrodden Canuck faithful have the right to come out of the shadows and get truly excited about one of their prospects?....I'd say we've arrived with Pettersson.....might be the best pure offensive talent they've drafted since Henrik and Daniel.

 

[Zombotron]

If he doesn't single-handedly win us the cup within the next three years he's a bust.

2006 Zetterberg or bust. He has to be 2006 Zetterberg objectively or he's simply not good enough

 

[Zombotron]

On that note, it took me like 12 games to realize he did indeed choose Zetterberg's #40 at the SHL level. Looks damn good on him.

 

[Melvin]

He should win the Conn Smythe this year.

 

[nucks88]

He should win the Conn Smythe this year.

Only after he wins the Norris and the Vezna

That looks like Mel Bridgeman.

 

[WTG]

That looks like Mel Bridgeman.

Gangs of new york, it's a Scorsese movie. I'd highly suggest it.

Damnnn loved that movie. Forgot all about it makes you feel old. Great to see Elias succeeding.

Yep, I think this time we won't get Hodged.

 

[Motte and Bailey]

Settle down everyone because according to CanaFan last week Elias isn't likely to play in the NHL.

Got a quote for that? If I said it then it should be easy to do, right?

You don't remember? You said he only might play an NHL game here:

A couple might. Not nearly as many as you seem to think.

 

[Hodgy]

You don't remember? You said he only might play an NHL game here:

LOL. This is getting ridiculous guys, can we just ban this guy and move on?

Can you include the post I was replying to for context?

 

[Motte and Bailey]

Can you include the post I was replying to for context?

The context is you disrespected our prospects by saying that in all likelihood they wouldn't ever play an NHL game, then I listed some names which included Peterson, then you said only a couple might play an NHL game.

 

[Motte and Bailey]

LOL. This is getting ridiculous guys, can we just ban this guy and move on?

Aww you really know how to make newer users feel welcome !

Welcome to the forum friend. I for one will never hate on a brotherly 'Nucklehead.

 

[Zombotron]

That is such an incomprehensible failure of reading comprehension. I just... what?

Why not just post the list then? I don’t recall making that statement about Pettersson specifically, rather a list of guys like Gadjovich, Lind, Palmu, etc.

I do recall posting this about Pettersson before his 5 pt game:

“Potential” is a vague descriptor but realistically only Pettersson has a good chance at 1st production. Lind is a kid I like a lot but he looks like a good 2nd line guy or a guy who can complement a top line guy more than a dynamic play-driver himself at the NHL level. Dahlen I think is even less likely to be a top liner than Lind. I mean, anyone can have the “potential” to do anything but realistically I think it’s unlikely those two get there. Pettersson is closer to having a realistic chance.

Also, you really should look up what “context” means cause I don’t think you know.

Thanks! I totally agree I'm not here to hate on anyone or else I'd be on a political website LOL!
