Vancouver has one of the youngest teams in the NHL, and just needs a few more pieces to be successful. Vancouver has one of the best rookies in the NHL, Elias Petersson is not only the Player of The Week but is also a front runner for rookie of the year.
Pettersson notched 8 points in his last 3 games, including a 5 pt show against the Saint Louis Blues. The interesting thing is Pettersson notched 4 assists and a goal against the Blues having only been on the ice for 13:41. He averages 18:21 minutes a game so far in his young career. Peterson notched 5 points with 5 less minutes of ice time then what he usually has.
Vancouver‘s top 5 point getters, Pettersson, Horvet, Goldobin, Boeser, and Virtanen are all under the age of 24. The future is bright up in Vancouver.
