Elias Pettersson Pushes Canucks Past Stars
3 years agoVancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson came up with a pair of big goals Saturday night against Vancouver, turning a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead and eventually helping the playoff-chasing team to a 4-1 victory. He tied the game 15:25 into the second period on the power play and potted his second one in an even-strength situation 1:15 into the final frame. The talented centerman reached 20 goals for the campaign and now sits on 47 points through 65 games. Pettersson is averaging close to a point per game this month, and he'll play a vital road down the stretch as the Canucks try to get into the Stanley Cup playoffs for only the second time in seven years.
