Pettersson First NHL Goal

[heretik27]

I tuned in to watch, he scored again right away. Kid definitely has some talent! I might actually like this version of the Canucks.

 

[I am toxic]

just lucky . . .

 

[Nut Upstrom]

Can we start calling him Elias Hockey (TM)?

 

[AvatarAang]

If only they didn't pick Juolevi...

Tkachuk - Pettersson - Boeser

Swede sandwiched by two Americans. Almost as sexy as two swedish twins:

 

[Nipsey]

Canucks have some nice talent with Pettersson/Boeser/Horvat/Hughes/Juolevi/Demko

1 or 2 more down years and I can see them as one o the leagues powerhouses.

 

[authentic]

Looks legit.

 

[Wintersun]

How can one not be high on this kid? Never understood the naysayers with this one.

EDIT : Added a perfect PP assist

Thats not how it works.

Who knows if the Canucks picked Tkachuk then they might have not sucked enough to pick at 5 for Petterson

 

[stuffradio]

Insane, 3 goals by Pettersson in 2 games, 2 goals 1 assist tonight.

 

[Gurilla]

He's a superstar

Doubt rookie Tkachuk makes us much better, and we already know McPhee wanted to take Glass at 5th overall when he discussed trading up with Benning.

 

[HanSolo]

Yeah this kid looks good.

Yeah the we would be the Leafs. All offence with a bunch of bums on D.

Juolevi looks like he will still be a player for us. Not a superstar but he will be a solid dman in this league for many years.

 

[Tomas W]

Saw some highlights, he can deke like Pavel Datsuyk!

 

[Avsboy]

Pettersson might be a legit superstar. Knows where to be and shoots well

Benning didn't risk trading down past McPhee because the Rags wanted him at 7 I think

The obvious choice would've been to pick Keller.

The obvious choice would've been to pick Keller.

I recall it basically being a toss up, either way, Benning saying "We are proud to select, from the London Knights" shouldn't have been followed by "Olli Juolevi"

 

[Agent Zub]

stupid good. 100 point potential

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

stupid good. 100 point potential

That wasnt even his best deke of the night. He was handling in a phone booth all game long

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

He’s legit. Without a doubt will be Vancouver’s best player going forward.

So much confidence. So relaxed. He's really having fun and enjoying himself. The NHL is his playground.

You don't happen to have one of those for the game last night, do you?

 

[Bougieman]

I know lots of players have scored in their first two NHL games, but Pettersson scored on all three of his first three shots in the NHL. Has that been done before?

 

[DemampCamp]

EP40 has not disappointed so far, this kid is on another level, his defensive play gets overlooked with how good he is offensively as well.
He’s noticeably the best player on the ice and only going to get better
