Prospect Info: Elias Pettersson | Pt. III

[DDRhockey]

Yeah I agree. The stats I posted may not be correct

Yeah I agree. The stats I posted may not be correct either but 46 shots seems absurdly low.

"on ice shooting%", how his team shoot with him on the ice, he included. His personal SH% is high, but teammates are low instead, regression should mean he has a little more assist than goals in the future.

 

[FroshaugFan2]

It’s not a verified stats account but YMMV

That's his on ice sh%, not his personal sh%.

 

[DDRhockey]

It basically means his teammates cant finish for their lives. Not surprised considering EP has 42% on all vajxo goals

 

[Hollywood Burrows]

Good lord, that on-ice shooting %. I'm trying not to get too excited. Injuries could be a problem over his career (fingers crossed) but I really don't see anything else that could hold him back from scoring 70 points in the NHL very soon.

 

[DDRhockey]

Dahlen 10 days away from playing wjc

 

[Zombotron]

haha, jörgen pettersson

 

[Zombotron]

the sheer absurdity of EP having half of the games played of most of the figures on that list. P1. grazie regazzi.

 

[GetFocht]

haha, jörgen pettersson

Pettersson is approximately half-way to tying the record for most points scored in a season by a u20 player all-time. He needs 27 points in 31 games.

 

[bigmackattack]

According to all known laws of hockey, there is no way that a D+1 prospect should be able to put up 27 points in 20 games in the SHL. His muscles are too small to carry his lanky body past the d-men. Elias Pettersson, of course, does it anyways. Because Pettersson doesn't care what humans think is impossible.

 

[Ryp37]

hopefully whoever is in charge of bulking our prospects up is canned before he comes over

 

[Healthy DiPietro]

At the start of the season I thought Pettersson's potential was Bäckström lite, but if he keeps this up for a while longer he should objectively be considered in Kent Nilsson territory. I started following the SHL in the mid 90s and I don't remember the Sedins ever standing out from the crowd like Pettersson does right now.

 

[Ainec]

too bad I'm not a Leafs fan because I would love to pop in here and say

He's the David Rundblad of forwards.


and watch you all take it seriously

 

[GetFocht]

Petterson is leaving every U20 player in the dust:

 

[Ainec]

Dahlin is a bum

 

[vcanuck]

we need to get a 1st round pick from a bubble team to have 2 picks (if we dont make the playoffs) in the lottery...

gotta get Dahlinnnn or Svechnikov for Pettersson to feed

 

[BigTruzz]

Legit just need another solid defensive prospect and we are good to go

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

I haven't been this excited about Canucks hockey since 2011.

Finally. We have elite, young talent.

 

[Ainec]

and a new management

 

[ihaveyuidonttouchme]

point one: missed first half of the period but picked off right after the goal
point two: that was some sweet assist at 3:07. i can just drool on that play over all day
point three: didnt think much happened after his second goal imho albeit who knows what happened in the 1st.

 

[LovemyNucks]

Legit just need another solid defensive prospect and we are good to go

...and Demko to fulfil his destiny. So far so good

How would getting another 1st round pick help us land Dahlin or Svechnikov? Also no bubble team is going to give up a 1st.

Kings have, I'm sure other teams have.

It's the ol' conditional first rounder

 

[Zombotron]

I was thinking about the use of the G-word and its appropriateness at this time.

No. It's going to take a lot. Like, a lot. The criteria should be pretty onerous.

Fifty points, minimum. Maybe an All-Star selection at the WJCs. Then we can entertain the idea of using the G-word.

 

[Josepho]

If you boot his shooting percentage down to 10%, which is very reasonable, he's still playing at a point per game rate, which is obviously still very impressive.

 

[Bougieman]

Good lord, that on-ice shooting %. I'm trying not to get too excited. Injuries could be a problem over his career (fingers crossed) but I really don't see anything else that could hold him back from scoring 70 points in the NHL very soon.

The fact that the NHL is the most physical league in the world and the fact that he and his older brother are both built like string beans?
