At this time of the year, there are very few players left in the NHL that aren't dealing with some type of injury affliction, but unfortunately for some, it's much much worse than others. That is the case for Vancouver's Elias Pettersson, who struggled mightily in the series against the Edmonton Oilers, and now he's faced the media to reveal just what he's been suffering through;
This was a tough break for a very talented Canucks team, as they also had to deal with the loss of Brock Boeser, who dealt with a blood clotting issue that forced him to miss the winner-take-all game seven in Vancouver.
Unsurprisingly, Pettersson revealed his desire to get away from the spotlight over the summer, as it was a very long season for him given the public contract issues to go along with the injuries.
The young star is now locked in for a long-time to come, and with the Canucks success in 2023-24, he'll be back next season looking to take Vancouver one step closer to a Stanley Cup in 2024-25.
