They learned that the harder they try to hit him, the worse the miss will be...and then you'll piss him off enough to score a highlight reel goal while you watch ...sitting on your ass...wondering how you missed him...again... I also learned that EP doesn't play in a soft league and is not a soft player....well I already knew that ...so I reaffirmed it...the kid is a winner...pure and simple...and he is coming to a team of winner's with the new core and JD, AG and OJ coming in this year...all as winner's.... Expect Awesome people....if it doesn't happen...check to see if the sky is falling...if not...we accept it for whatever it is....but Expect Awesome to happen in a rink near you...! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if he scores on his first shift...great. I'm just worried that Canucks fans are gonna expect too much out of him right off the bat. If he proves me wrong and starts producing right away then I'll gladly eat my own words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cory40 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 7 hours ago, Borvat said: Usually I would agree, but he isn't a "rookie" in the sense of a typical 19 or 20 year old coming out of the CHL. He has basically been playing at the same level as the AHL in a men's league (some would argue higher level from a skill perspective but maybe not a physicality perspective) and was the league leading scorer and probably best offensive player. He turned 19 after the beginning of the season. He is only going to get better. I think this kid may really surprise some people especially if he has the right line mate (s) and opportunity like 1st unit PP. 7 hours ago, Rush17 said: has this been posted omg I have never seen anyone pull a move like that before. I watched it over and over. I figure the far side defender was going to go behind the net and stop a wrap around but had to try and stop the unthinkable Elias bringing it shortside. Probably the only play he could have done and scored himself. I remembered someone saying he always seems to do the only option (not expected) and make it look easy. Looks like he will replace both Daniel and Henrick. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is having totally unrealistic expectations but if the stats are correct that is what I am hoping for. My bet is north of 70. And a slow start to boot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Nick Bakstrom had 69 points in his NHL rookie season which was his d+2 year (if im not mistaken). Hes probably the closest comparable to EP in the modern NHL in terms of development path. At the very least it shows 1st production is possible for elias next season. Edited April 22, 2018 by Canadian Clay 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derp... Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Elias Pettersson is like the better version of Clayton Keller. What an incredible season he's had. SO fun to watch The one play from today where he stepped around his guy from the corner boards and set up a teammate in the slot for a chance was just magic. He must have had 7 or 8 shot assists and half of them into the high danger area of the ice. Not to mention 2 goals and two shots from in tight too. I'm actually excited for the WC this year. Horvat Pettersson Hopefully Juolevi Hopefully 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted April 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) It’s so tough to predict Pettersson. This season, he’s blown past even the most optimistic forecasts of what he could do in the SHL. Obviously NHL is a significant step up, but he’s proven a lot this year playing against men in the 3rd best hockey league in the world. He’s been able to adjust to the ramped up intensity of playoff hockey, taking a few games to find his bearings, and then showing he can still dominate during what’s been a very chippy series. He’s been a marked man for a while now, and he just seems to relish the competition and raise his game the harder teams go after him. He does not back down. He just keeps finding another gear. How many more gears he has is the question. But you look at his skillset, and it’s hard not to feel like he’s still just scratching the surface of how good he can be. He’s blown the ceiling right off. Where he goes from here is anyone’s guess. But it really feels like we’re at a place where it’s just a question of whether he’s going to be a star or a superstar in the NHL. It’s definitely going to be fun finding out.

I can't wait to see Boeser and Pettersson feeding each other on the PP. Now you got 2 quality forwards for Juolevi to work with. We all saw what he did with Laine, Aho, and Pulvi. All he needs is players who can make use of his crisp passing and amazing timings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will depend how many games he plays in the NHL. He may sit some or start in Utica. Crazy as that sounds lol. It will be hard to keep him out of the NHL tho. He is sooooo good for his age.
