He could have gotten 4-5 points tonight. Made a beautiful pass to someone in the slot earlier in the game and he rang it off the post with the net half open. Also had a terrific wrap around attempt but he couldnt quite corral the puck. It was evident that players wanted to give Pettersson the puck as quickly as possible. He created so many chances he reminded of Joe Thornton out there with that long reach and lanky frame. Dahlin and Pettersson seemed to have lots of chemistry particularly in the PP as Dahlin used Pettersson as the go-to guy. All we need is to win the lottery and get Dahlin. We deserve a player like him for once! Edited December 26, 2017 by Odd. 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DeltaSwede Posted December 26, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2017 1 hour ago, VancouverHabitant said: Weird question for this thread, but a good spot to ask... Any one player on the Belarus that stood out? Yup. A name the Swedish reporters brought up before the game and I do see why. Perhaps looks better than he is, due to the players he is surrounded with but he wouldn't have looked out of place in a team Sweden jersey either. Yegor Sharangovich, went undrafted last year. http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=271111 On topic again, Elias was really really good tonight. The Swedish experts/pundits sorta chuckled every time he touched the puck and muttered things like "wow" "ooh look at that" "thats a smart move" for the entirety of the game. He thinks the game on a very high level and he shows a lot of creativity in his decision making. I kept thinking "just give it to Elias". I've watched him quite a bit in the SHL this season and all I can say is: get excited 3 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post flickyoursedin Posted December 26, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2017 Just saw this up on YouTube! 17 minute compilation of Elias Pettersson’s game today! He looked great and with some better finish from his teammates could have easily had another 2 assists. From this highlight package Dahlin and Lias Andersson also looked good. Wasn’t very impressed with Alex Nylander. 2 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rollieo Del Fuego Posted December 26, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2017 2 hours ago, R35Godz1lla said: Fair enough. Just seems like the directive is take a slot shot or move the puck to the left side high wall for Nylander. Could just be how this game went but that seemed to be the way it was drawn up in practice lol. Nylander did seem to be a drag on EP's game....like other's have said "the puck died" on WN's stick way too much.... I think once EP settles in, he will shoot a bit more....he needs Boeser on the left wall feeding him cross ice dishes...and vica-verca...I can't wait for that.... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guile Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Half his ice-time was on the power play, and his even strength ice-time looked no different. Sweden was dominant when he was out there... Love that he and Dahlin enjoy playing catch with each other. I'll agree with Rolli above and say that he could take a couple more shots. On his goal, the way he pulled the puck laterally before releasing was pure Brock. Can't wait to see him against stiffer competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I thought EP looked great today. Great vision and great passes. Will be fun to watch him in this tournament! He has a lot of upside. A lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruilin96 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I love the way that he always makes the right pass and always gets it to his teamate and he seems to be able to create something out of nothing. I see him becoming a dominant 1st line playmaking center in his prime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Dahlin got the assist on Pettersson's goal. I'd like to see that happen happen many more times in the years to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroCanuck Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Thought Elias was awesome today. Beautiful patience and hockey IQ. Only negative I saw in his game today is that he was knocked off the puck somewhat easily in many cases, he really needs to add on some muscle and size if he truly wants to dominate the NHL. Very exciting times with all our prospects performing admirably 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby_Lu1ngo Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Our PP would be incredibly hard to contain if we managed to get Dahlin. The way him and Elias moved the puck around and opened up space for what would be Boeser on the left side was remarkable. Dahlins ability to skate and gain the zone is effortless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wai_lai416 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 man.. if we can get dahlin somehow.. it will for sure speed up the so call rebuild by years.. the rebuild won't move forward until we find some good/great defensemen.. compare toronto to edmonton lol.. toronto at least have better defensemen than edmonton and looks much further along their rebuild vs edmonton who's front heavy.. but still no solid top pairing defensemen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dream come true if we were to draft him. The injuries to Horvat, Baertschi, and Tanev as well as others are blessings in disguise really. Probably the only time I'll ever "cheer" for player(s) getting injured on our team. We are now 27th in the league and everyone below us and above us have a game in hand.

cory40 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Spoiler looks like we will have a # 5 draft pick. If I was a betting man I think we only move down 2 spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best we can do is tank for the 20% odds of winning the 1st pick. Thank you oilers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
