If they both play on the Canucks at the same what do you do with the name on the jersey? Usually with same last name they just add the first name initial right? I guess in this case they would just both have Pettersson on the jersey.

If EP2 makes the NHL, this’ll be hilarious. How will announcers, teammates, coaches, etc differentiate the two?

This is actually a good player as well. Elias Pettersson was in my eyes the highest IQ defenceman on the Swedish U18 team that won gold. Translateable skillset with good mobility, defensive decision making and passing. He’s not really worse than Odelius or Salomonsson who went before.
 
I'm surprised nobody done this yet

Have two players with the exact same and no relation ever played on the same professional sports team before?
It’s happened at least a few times in the NFL. Dallas Cowboys had Roy Williams (safety) and Roy Williams (WR) at the same time around 10 years ago.
 
Canucks need to get a 3rd Elias Pettersson, and then put them together in the locker room like the Jims in Shoresy.

"Elias you ready to go?"
"Yeah!"
Elias, you ready to go?"
"YES!"
"Elias, you ready to go?"
"I am indubitably, good sir."

GOOD, 'CUZ YOU'RE GOIN'! :laugh:
