Yeh kinda like McDavid if the defense doesn't get him the puck he is kinda use less. Gotta filter out fans from Haters.
-
And in todays NHL players need to slow a bit or they spend 4 mos on injure reserve.
-
anyone have a link for the game
-
Lots of players play through the flu.
-
Sad. They had a goal gifted to them early. Kinda through the game . Oli looks awesome. He is going to be a stud in Vancouver

Wow is all I can say. And Belarus looks way better than last year. The whole Swedish team cont to look for EP. Only one pass didn't get through was on a totally different level than the other players. 2 points and I bet he is disappointed he didn't have at least 4 pts.
-
Sad when fans get upset when we have high expectations for players. Sometimes players put expectations on themselves with how they perform. Vancouver has missed lots of draft picks because of ignoring these Europian stats. Look out for EP. I wouldn't trade EP for anyone in the draft. He has potential to be the best player in the NHL. And this will make McDavid fans, or even that guy from Toronto fans a little worried. He is doing things in Hockey against men in a boys body that's in heard of.

Do not all top prospects get their due. Its up to him to fail or be a bust. So maybe get on board.
-
This is Karma. NHL fixs the draft. Canucks still get best player.
-
Well many players get called generational players. And maybe that term flatters players. Its not like the Gretzky era where he lead by 80 points. Many of these players win a point race by 5 to 10 points. Maybe Lemiex was the last true generational player. But petterson will be in good company.
-
EP will do fine. I am sure aftere last year they are playing to get their legs and nothing more. The Pedal will go to the medal when the tourney starts. Book it,!
-
I think its unfair to compare Petterson to any other player. He is going to be a generational player that the Canucks stole in the draft. Teams will play with a game plan to stop Petterson and Boeser. Just like Pavel he was stole in the draft. The Hockey god's sometimes even things out from the front office games.
-
Who cares if it is in the Pettersson thread its a valid thread on its own.

The original post was wrong. Kesler in his prime scored in a shut down role. Was not a threat offensively when he had the puck ,But very dangerous when he stole the puck and skated the other direction.
-
Kesler a 1c ?........Never would he be able. He could not pass to save his life. He was a dangerous shutdown c/ defender. Because he could skate and shoot. But his game was exposed when he had to center a line on the offensive side of center.
-
Yeh true But in Edmontons case they have been ruining #1 picks for 10 years. Then they go to other teams for rehab.
-
If this was Edmonton ....Next year would be his second year in the NHL . The extra year will do him wonders. He is playing well against men.
-
Yeh I hear that. But this kid is thrown out in offensive situations to score goals. Not playing as a matchup guy.
-
Trying to find WJH preview of Sweden. Lots of chatter about other players. Kinda feels like Knowbody back east want to mention Elias P. One article called him a defensive forward. Can't wait until he rips up the Tournament.
-
and my personal favorite. Well if our teams played Edmonton and Calgary we'd lead the league also.
-
Wow. Get Hyped. Quit complaining, we hit a home run. He is leading men in scoring. He is outworking men in tight spots. And if the SHL was easier to score in why are goals not up from years gone bye? I like what I see. The players he is mentioned with in the SHL are really good players. I have a feeling EP will not be satisfied with being really good.
-
I feel Kevin Lowe is still the puppeteer. Three G.m's and they still run Hockey the same way that Kevin ran the team when the fire Kevin Lowe chants hit Alberta. Until they fire Kevin Lowe expect similar results. I do believe Chirelli is floating on Jim Bennings rep.
-
Great players are ready because they think the game so much faster. He will rush himself and not look back. He is playing already with men.
-
He will be fine at 170 RNH isn't much bigger and not as skilled. He makes the nucks next year because they need him and his maturity will outweigh him.
