“He’s a wreck right now”

–

Three goals in 17 matches.
The criticism of Elias Pettersson has known no bounds in recent weeks – and now the Swede is listed as one of the season’s biggest disappointments.

Negative headlines have hung over Elias Pettersson during the start of the season. The Swede has not lived up to the high expectations after his three incomparable first seasons in Vancouver.

“Has been deplorable”

It is getting worse for Elias Pettersson who signed a super contract with Vancouver for this season.

The Athletic has listed a squad with the season’s biggest disappointments so far, and there the Swede takes a place in the first chain.

“Pettersson has been miserable this season and is a big reason for Vancouver’s weak start to the season,” writes The Athletic expert Sean McIndoe.

The expert also believes that there are several alternatives from Vancouver that can get on the list, but that Elias Pettersson is the biggest disappointment. Much due to the high expectations the fans had of the Swede before the season, which has delivered constantly for Vancouver in recent years.

McIndoe continues:

“Or maybe it’s the Canucks who have been a disappointment this year and Pettersson has dropped along with the team.”

“Both may be true. But Vancouver is losing the season and the fans have a hard time dealing with it “, writes the expert.

Additional Swedish on the list

Elias Pettersson is not the only Swede who qualifies for the, to say the least, unflattering list of the season’s biggest disappointments. Boston Bruins goalkeeper Linus Ullmark also takes his place.

“When Ullmark signed a surprising contract worth 20 million dollars, everyone expected him to become Boston’s new first goalkeeper. But a month into the season, it looks like he has already lost that spot. He numbers are also bad “, writes McIndoe.

No dancing on roses for Elias Pettersson who struggled all season to find the top form. Several experts describe his efforts as bland and that it is clear that the Swedish star completely lacks self-confidence.
