Al-mo Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 A tweet from Ryan Rishaug: https://twitter.com/TSNRyanRishaug/status/996706514055417856 A shame, he might have been a nice add. 5'11'' 170 lbs Right shot 34 pts in 51 GP last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree that it would have been nice to sign him, keep in mind that his stats are heavily inflated due to being the PPD with Elias on the best team in the SHL. However, it certainly would have been neat to give Elias a buddy, though I suspect his personality will fit right in with the Canucks locker room.

Pepe Silvia Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 The Sedins/Anson Carter effect already taking place. That guy owes Elias a beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzle Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 TBH, I think a lot of players just want to make a career for themselves, and not have to follow another player around (i.e. Brandon Tanev, Pettersson) to do so. Besides, there may or may not be any room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 24pts on the PP (regular season) - 2nd on the team in PP points after Pettersson who had 26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
