Player Discussion Elias Pettersson - A Forward Who Scores
- Thread starter Vector
- Start date
It’s asinine an injured player playing through an injury is bad… he then has a slow start for a month… but let’s still jump on him…
And people still think the treatment of him and miller is the same?
Yeah no wonder people say they don’t take certain posters seriously.

Imagine they traded EP for B Tkachuk like some fans suggested
Would have been the worst trade in franchise history, might as well move the team at that point .
All people see are stats, they never realize how much of a negative influence Tkachuk is to his team. He is a complementary player, not a leader.
The ultimate smaller brother syndrome

Now five more games of data:
- Still zero bursts in the top category.
- Six more in the middle category (14 in 14 to 20 in 19).
- 30 more in the lowest category (7 per game in his first 14, 6 per game since).
Play has improved but his top end speed still looks the same. Obviously not holding him back but will be interesting to follow as the season goes on.
He's doing better no doubt about it. But he still is extremely reluctant to shoot, I counted three times where he had a solid chance to shoot and ended up passing (and nothing really of consequences resulted). Also he still has difficulty getting open on the PP ( yesterday on our first PP unit even with Boeser, Miller and Hughes gone, he was not getting the puck much, with it being left with Garland to direct shots at the net). So happy he is doing better but still has a ways to go I feel.

May as well move the team because they traded a 90 point Centre for an 80 point winger. Now I've heard it all. And I was not advocating this trade but your post has to be sarcasm and I'm just not picking it up. Tkachuk is NOT a complimentary player.
You're obviously too young to remember Vaive and Derlago for Tiger or Cam Neely and a 1st for Barry Pederson.

He’s doing better than he was over the last 8 months but he still is not justifying his cap hit.
He’s the 5th highest player in the NHL. He has to be the best player on the team day in and day out for 7 years. He can’t disappear for 40 games. That’s insane.
That’s what he sighed up for with his contract.
100 points per year MINIMUM for 7 years straight. Hard stop. Anything else is a bad contract. God forbid anybody expect that from him.
