That inch of space he put the puck in wouldn't have been there if he had shot even a half second earlier. Just shows how smart he is. They don't teach that in hockey school. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is crazy, I hope we give him the time he needs when he arrives at North America, let him develop into a bonafide elite #1 center that I think he could be. He could potentially break Henrik’s Canucks franchise record in points by the end of his career. break? you meaan shatter! :D yay baby future hall of famer coming babyyyyt!!

But no way did he ever possess a one timer like EP40's. Looks like we may have a shooter/playmaker we've been missing for the life of our franchise.

Dixon Ward Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 This guy has skill like few Canucks we have ever seen. Sedins Naslund Bure Mogilny are the only ones with his crazy high end skill that I can think of. Of course we all thought that CoHo was going to be a crazy high end guy when he led the WJHC in scoring. But it is pretty cool to observe his skills and stats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Ward Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 On his second goal, the defenseman looks very anxious. I think the kid's got a reputation already in 17 games. Pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This player may be really special - it has been a long time since the Canuck organization has had anyone with this much natural skill. He may become of the most talented players to have ever played in Vancouver - if he can take that talent and convert it to the NHL game, this could be something very special for the Canuck franchise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got a 10 min game misconduct one game when he forgot to tuck his jersey. So if you took that away he only has 2 PIM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pettersson may replicate Hank and win a Hart in his prime potentially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EP matching Nylander then Gaudette, Juolevi and the others coming in will change their tune pretty quick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rather him come to the NHL and wow every critics and silence all the Canuck haters. A lot of ppl were laughing at Benning taking Pettersson over Glass and Vilardi. Now I think in a re-draft, he may go as high as #2 based on D+1 stats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I crazy... Jesus man this kid is the hottest thing since sliced bread, but even that cooled off. I've seen a few articles. The Hockey News has a weekly hot prospects report. A few weeks ago they mentioned it would be redundant to put him in every week???
