Popular Post -Vintage Canuck- Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 C | 6'2" | 165 lbs Shoots | Left Born | 1998-11-12 Draft | 2017 Round 1 #5 Overall by Vancouver Canucks Scouting report: Quote A crafty and agile two-way forward, Pettersson is consistently productive in all three zones. As he gets stronger, he'll become even more physical and aggressive than he is now, and his creativity could definitely elevate his game to dominant levels. He can be described as a tenacious, jack-of-all-trades kind of player; he is well versed in all the important aspects of his own game. His speed and top-end acceleration continue to improve game by game, and his hard-nosedness shows through in his dogged pursuit of puck control. Elias Pettersson is a complete hockey player with exceptional hockey sense who brings intellect and youthful exuberance to a game that feeds on his kind of exciting athleticism.

Popular Post MrCanuck94 Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Love it, elite skill, just wait till he fills out. Plus, AHL eligible this year I'm pretty sure! Edited June 23, 2017 by MrCanuck94 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post messier's_elbow Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Over Vilardi and Glass? Fire Benning please. Edit: After a few hours to let the pick sink in, I don't hate it. I'd still rather have Vilardi or Glass but if Petterson can fill out he looks like he could be a good player. His stats in his men's league are quite good. I'll give him a chance. Edited June 24, 2017 by messier's_elbow 1 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkyfresh Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Was hoping for Vilardi but I like the pick. He'll take some time to get stronger but could easily become one of top players in the draft. He brings the much needed elite skill this team has been lacking for years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BananaMash Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 I AM EXCITED. A bit riskier than Glass, but Petterson has such a high offensive ceiling. I'm peeing myself I'm so happy. 1 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benning didn't screw this up I'm serious Vilardi will be the best player from the draft. Glass would have been better as well. Benning sucks. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GoBoGo53 Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 Said this would be a good pick from a long time ago. Great to see the Canucks chose skill over size. That's what lead us to take Virtanen over Nylander. This is great. Ecstatic. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post King Heffy Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 This guy actually has offensive talent. He's the only center outside the top 2 who has 1st line potential. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
