It’s important to remember that the 2016-17 Anaheim Ducks D had this:
Cam Fowler
Sami Vatanen
Josh Manson
Shea Theodore
Brandon Montour
Hampus Lindholm
It's not time to give up on Elias Pettersson and here's why:
Points through 46 games in their 23 year old seasons:
Henrik Sedin 26
Elias Pettersson 24
Daniel Sedin 23
Markus Naslund 23
He's gonna be fine.

If the Canucks do hire Doerie, it doesn’t mean they can’t hire Botterill. Apparently you can have multiple women in your head office, it’s not capped at one.
Let’s see how the Canucks are at the 10 game mark.
20 games is really a better measurement. US Thanksgiving.
Ok well let’s see how they are at 30 games. Still too early.
They’re 20-9-1 people.
Out:
Horvat, Schenn, Lazar, Lockwood, Stillman, 2nd, 7th
In:
Hronek, Beauvillier, Kravtsov, Raty, Bloom, 3rd, 4th, 4th
I know a lot of Canucks fans don’t like it, but I think overall the team did pretty well.
I hope that we see Brock Boeser back with the Canucks next year. You can tell what kind of person he is and the ties that he has with his teammates. I want that person on my team.
Just to recap, the trade that brought JT Miller to Vancouver was Miller for Marek Mazanec, Hugo Alnefelt and Shakir Mukhamadullin.
I think it’s safe to say that this is a win for the Canucks.
Bo Horvat became the first Canucks captain last night to score 30 goals in a season since Markus Naslund in 05-06.
He also has set a career high in goals, and broke a Canucks record last night for consecutive faceoff wins.
Zadorov has become a lightning rod this series. He seems to be all everyone talks about and who everyone wants to talk to. For a Canucks team with a lot of guys without much playoff experience, and some guys that are struggling a bit, Z needs to be applauded for shouldering this

win the Stanley Cup in 7 games as part of a 2011 rematch against the Boston Bruins.
Years ago I took a Japanese friend to her first Canucks game. During the game she asked ‘why are they saying coconuts go?’ That’s stuck with me to this day, so
Coconuts go!
Elias Pettersson has 13 goals in 12 games which equates to 54 in 50 games and because he's done it in less games than Matthews he's now the greatest goal scorer in league history.
Things at Rogers Arena that annoy me more than the colour of the seats:
-washroom lineups
-beer lineups and prices
-food lineups and prices
-when Crazy P bangs the drum in my ear
-I never win anything
-anytime Sweet Caroline is played
-often the guys in front of me
You can tell that Miller and Pettersson don’t like each other when they both agreed to play together for 7 more years.
I think it’s time to retire that narrative.
The most Canucks thing to happen now will be for OEL to regain his form on a new team on a cheap deal and win a Stanley Cup while the Canucks are still paying him.
Pete leaves country:
Canucks go 9-0-2
Pete returns home:
Canucks go 5-6-2
Pete leaves country again:
Canucks are 2-0-0
The 13 games I’ve been out of Canada for, the Canucks are 11-0-2. I’m never coming home. Starting a GoFundMe.
I've read the ending. Spoiler alert:
-Canucks play slightly above .500 hockey the rest of the way
-pick outside the top 5
-Petey finishes top ten in scoring
-only Schenn gets traded
-Rogers beer prices continue to set records
Unless I missed it, no one had a sniff that the Hronek deal was getting done today. Canucks running a tight ship, which means expect to continue to be in the dark.
Maybe I’m a glass half full, but:
-Ian Clarke is 61
-he requested the change
-the Canucks accommodated, and even said you’ve done so well, we’re gonna promote you to keep you around
So I’m gonna keep drinking this coffee and maybe even get a croissant to go with it now.
The Canucks are going to miss the playoffs but finish outside the draft lottery spots aren’t they. Because that would be the most Canuck thing to happen.
The Canucks go on a 7-0-1 run, losing in a SO in their last game, and suddenly some fans are trading Miller and Pettersson.
We've become further unhinged post-Benning.
I admit that even recently I had said the Canucks should trade JT Miller. I’ve changed my opinion though. You have until the next trade deadline to decide. This guy is just too damn good. Also are we allowed to change our opinions on Canucks Twitter?
Many of you may not know this, but I use a model called WOW to predict who the best teams in the NHL are. WOW stands for Wins, OT losses, and Watching Games. The formula gives 2 points for a win, one for an overtime loss, and kudos for watching. Here are it’s current rankings:
