Elias Pettersson is a Swedish defenceman who plays a well-rounded two-way game. Not to be confused with his fellow Swede who has the exact same name (center for the Vancouver Canucks), this Elias Pettersson plays defence and is much bigger than his namesake.

Pettersson played most of this season with the U20 team for Örebro where he was excellent, scoring 10 goals and earning 18 points over 37 games. He managed to play in 17 Swedish Hockey League (SHL) games later in the season but was rarely given consistent ice time. He earned one assist in those games but did flash a bit of his offensive potential despite being such a young player in one of the world’s best professional hockey leagues.

I literally laughed out loud when I saw the pick 😂

What’s everybody’s opinion on the actual Player

Don't mind picking a defenseman with a good shot here. We simply do not get enough goals from our back end and lack a defender with a big Slapshot

GOAT tier name though I can't imagine what it's going to be like if we makes the show and we have two of them
 
This had to be at least partially a troll pick lol

Now we need to obtain the Ahos
 
I would swing for the fences with Edmonds at 112.

Overager, but had a huge season in the OHL.
