Elias Pettersson 2018-19 Season Highlights | Calder Trophy Winner 

This is a highlight reel for an entire career for a majority of players. The kid did it in a rookie season 19 years old! Absolutely insane. Great video.

This kid is freaking insane. Can't wait to see him in the next couple years.

I'm not a big hockey guy but I really like the way he shoots. His swing is super smooth. It seems like he gets so much power, and also accuracy, from measured technique rather than brute force.

NHL: How good is your shot? Elias: Yes.

No matter how many times I see videos of him I get goosebumps. Kid is a star!

My one word for him is, threat. Doesn’t seem to matter where he is once he hits the offensive zone, you gotta watch out. Challenge, and he’ll brake your ankles, don’t challenge he’ll just wrist it top shelf. One timer, is insane. Passing. Insane. Skill. Off the charts. Speed. Hockey sense. It’s all there. And this is a rookie season. This is him, before he gets a bigger build, before he’s got a chance to get used to the league. What a season. You’re crazy if you think he doesn’t deserve the Calder. He is single handedly the reason I will be watching Vancouver next year. Don’t worry Canuck fans, your time is coming

I had goosebumps after 15 seconds. Tears after 2 minutes.

that pass right after he's tripped against vegas...pure filth

One of the best releases in the league, this kid is otherworldly

9:21 holy shit. he is like gretzky, he uses the threat of passing lanes to control defenders. he holds that puck until deep then he fakes dumping it around the net to move the defenseman just a bit, otherwise the passing lane is covered, and then threads the needle for the one timer. That is some next level shit.

You know a player is good in his rookie season, when colour commentators from basically every away team have a small hockey orgasm watching him play.

He’s one timer is unreal. He’s actually unreal at everything really

he is probably one of the best rookies i have ever seen

3:59 it took the sedins almost their entire careers to make that play work. These kids did it their first and 2nd year.

Pettersson turned hockey into art

Rookie of the year‼️🏆💥🥂

Mind boggling how talented Pettersson is

Big steal at number 5 , Canucks future looks insane!

Hes got skill and also isn't afraid to go to the net to score.

Wayne Gretzky told in an interview that he sees similarities between him and Elias Pettersson as a hockey player. Let that sink in for a moment...

Wow! What a video, the editing, the choice of music!

Please God's just let this young man stay healthy..

Insane footage from his rookie year! Very very very few players can put togheter such a highlight video in their rookie season! Absolute bonkers!

Amazing talent. No words for this, this is a person who lives for hockey. Vancouver are very lucky to have this young talent. They better treat him right and they will have a very promising future

I watched it twice this kid is so fun to watch. More Alien please

He is the Chosen One. :)

His shot is insane! 🎯 Props on the Calder buddy. Dang!

Blir så jävla glad när jag ser Elias göra poäng i högsta ligan!!! Fan va gott :D Önskar dig all lycka till i framtiden!

Absolutely insane shot! The accuracy is just next level! Can't wait to follow his career!

Insane.

Reincarnation of hank and daniel 🔥

Top 5 talent in the league

Looking forward to see him play with Dahlin and the others in the world championship

A ''STAR'' In The Makings... [Hockey Talk!}:

2:10 jt miller slamming his stick. now they're linemates

This gives me chills.

Every shot he's taking.. you can see him aim. He finds the time to setup, aim and shoot every freaking time.. simply amazing 💪🏽💪🏽

I love that many of these are against teams that are in the playoffs. Just another reminder, the future is bright in Vancouver!

the chosen one

Oh my god I really do see flashes of Gretzky

After a game the kid leaves you with a smile on your face leaving the arena

Can’t wait for next season!

Some say that Mike Smith is still looking for the puck after that debut game goal...

Music selection is absolutely on point.

Gr8 vid! Nicely edited and fitting music :)

Watching this guy is like watching of stream of water , calm and relaxed in one moment , turn in to a vortex the next Makes me proud being a swede ! Go Elias !

from finnish to swedish i salute you.

This kid is unreal. Love how much more excited he is when a teammate scores then when he does it.

I had him in my hockey pool that year, what a surprise. Consider me a fan.

“How many 19 year olds do you see doing that?”

Helluva goal scorer. Thanks for drafting him Vancouver, and a special thanks to the other 4 teams that passed on 'em (especially Colorado).

so proud of him

Great video

The Canucks young core will become a dynasty eventually. Mark my words.

Petterson somehow makes falling look awesome

that music transition around 2:48 mins made this thank you!

Nicely edited! It helps having jaw-dropping content to work with 😛

I didn't want to be hurt again so I was skeptical until the 10th goal off the left wing. He's dangerous from everywhere, especially that right circle. That shot is all technique, and he's still going to get bigger and stronger.

I'm so glad the Canucks "lost" the 2017 draft lottery and fell to 5th overall!

Looking back on the difference in how much of closer physical checks other teams do to him, speaks a lot from this year of his... Look forward to his transformation after he gets over his slump from this level of physicality from this league...

Imagine if the Sedins just did 1 more season in their own line....Canucks would be scary. Don't think anyone expected this line with boeser and Pettersson...

give this boy the calder

I love watching Pettersson play, I think he's the best Swedish forward to enter the league since Nicklas Bäckström.

Who else recognized the iconic '94 Peter Forsberg olympic penalty tribute at 10:20? this kid is something else.

hopefully this is the last time i see pouliot on a canucks highlight video. ever.

The pass at 3:50 is unreal. Watching him at the World Championship will be so much fun :D.

God level player. IMO in 2 years, he will be the 2nd best player in the world behind McDavid. He's a mix between Gretzky and Datsyuk. Vancouver's future looks insane.

He has such a small frame... Where does he generate all that power from for his shot? Not a Vancouver fan but he sure is fun to watch. He's going to make some real magic if he manages to stay healthy.

I cant even imagine how good he will be in a few years once he adds a few lbs to his frame

“we’re going to fill a need, a playmaker is what we need” little did they know the heavily scrutizined pick is already a franchise center heading into his fourth year in the league and is the best european playmaker i’ve seen come into the league since backstrom. not to mention one of the best shots in the league.

This kid was insane in his rookie season, can't believe it's been like 4 years now since his entry to the NHL

i watch this monthly. the kids a god

If I were putting forward an all-time Canucks lineup, I'd have Pettersson on my top line - with Naslund and Bertuzzi. Not only am I projecting he'll be that good, I'd also imagine he'd be beyond phenomenal with these two. He and Nazzy can make plays off each other, so you won't have a clue what they're going to do, whether they're going to pass or shoot, or what on earth are they seeing. Big Bert will be there to back them physically if things ever get rough, but he'll also be effective generating plays and finishing off.

This kid is unreal.

From hero to zero

Ya, he is pretty good. ;)

Half way in his rockie season, he was scoring like crazy but the really sick fact is that his shot % was 28! People say he don't shoot enuogh but he seldom throw the puck on chance. If he don't see the the opening he rather make a brilliant pass. In stark contrast to Miller...

Nice vid man

Damn summer!.... Why wont you end!?

Wow!!!!

the legend

he has some intercepted passes resulted in a goal,,, ive yet to see horvat and boeser do that,, dis hockey iq is off the charts

This was a great video is so freaking kid @WDS

Pettersson is the new great one.

Elias Pettersson, best ever shooter from Sweden?

The Force is strong in this one.

He’s got a shot like ovechkin my god

Some think he reminds of Gretzky, but Gretsky couldnt shoot. Definetly not even close to that world class onetimer Pettersson have.

Currently 7 dislikes. That's 7 people who cheer for a team that lacks a Pettersson.

Look at the good benning announcing his name he didn't want him

Hopefully next year will be the year for him

4:28 That release is something else.

He was so good in Sweden so he must play for Sweden if even nhl can do that

Not a Canucks fan but I'll be watching as many games as I can

ФЕНОМЕНАЛЬНО!!! Чудовищный талант у парня.

He are amazing

Dynamite!

And to think.... Boeser wasn't fully healthy for this season, next year is going to be bonkers if they can get another stud winger... Skinner or Panarin.

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t he get a goal or a point every game against Calgary?

I just watched highlight videos of Bure, Mogilny, now Pettersson. Yes, he is going to be as great for Vancouver as those two were. He may not have game-breaking speed, but he's smarter than anyone I'd seen. Reminds me an awful lot of Gretzky, I think.
