Elias Pettersson (Image Via Twitter) The Winter Olympics have risen to prominence in recent discussions on NHL news round-ups, particularly among players who need momentum playing at an inopportune time. Elias Pettersson of the Vancouver Canucks goes to the tournament with an enormous burden of scrutiny, and it is hoped that playing internationally with Team Sweden may assist him in finding his consistency and confidence against the upper level of competition.The most recent NHL news has reported inconsistent performances by Pettersson during this season, and this has contributed to more NHL trading speculations on whether he will continue playing with the Vancouver team in the long term. But people think that the slower action and setup of the Olympic hockey might give him the chance to display the ability that is occasionally lost in the steel of the NHL routine.
Adam Foote comments on Elias Pettersson of Vancouver Canucks’ Olympic impact
Vancouver Canucks head coach Adam Foote proposed that playing for Team Sweden would give Elias Pettersson a chance to take his game to the next level. The need to compete with the best international talent can take him to the next level and, as a result, make him go back to the NHL with a clearer mind.Foote reported that good performances in high-pressure international matches usually translate into better NHL match performances when the players come back to their teams. An effective Olympic performance could either secure the presence of Pettersson as part of the Vancouver Canucks roster or raise his trade value as NHL trade rumors continue; therefore, the next few weeks are of particular importance to both the player and the franchise.
