Elias Pettersson News: Trio of apples Sunday

Pettersson had three assists in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over Detroit.

Pettersson helped Vancouver tie the game on two occasions before setting up Jake DeBrusk's game-winner in the extra frame. The 26-year-old Pettersson is red hot with 12 points (three goals) over his last eight games, and he's been held off the scoresheet only twice in his last 11 contests. The Swedish center has developed chemistry with DeBrusk, and they were joined by Brock Boeser on the top line Sunday. Pettersson is tied for second on the Canucks with 21 points through 23 games.
