A moment of appreciation for D-Petey and the Canucks drafting him
December 22, 2025
They drafted him 3rd round 80th overall and yet he has the potential to be one of the best 3rd round defensive defenseman in nhl history. Thank you Canucks for this young stud

The next, but poor-man’s, Ohlund
Not even close to being the best 3rd round dman in Canucks history, Alex Edler says hello. But one can always hope he surpasses his ceiling.
Hes such a beauty
If we truly are rebuilding, then this management group seems suited to it. They have managed to find great value deep into the draft. EP25 is a great example of that.
Likewise it seems like Cootes is really surpassing expectations at every level, hopefully he is great for years to come.
It was only ever supposed to be for the memes. Who knew he would be good.
He’s quickly growing on me
Not the best in history but yeah he’s solid
What’s a realistic projection for him? It’d be great if he could be a top-four shutdown guy but a solid 3rd pair D would still be a W
This is the Petey I like. He is gonna be good for us. Really good. Lets not forget he is 21 yrs old already playing one of the hardest positions in hockey. He will have his moments as he learns but he will be very solid.
Did he know Alex Edler? He plays just like him.
Man I thought he got traded for a sec
I honestly thought he was just a meme pick, but I’m glad to be wrong
