One thing that is happening is that some how, and it makes no sense but, some how Elias Pettersson is becoming under-rated. He drives the Canucks bus. Every underlying metric and advanced stat shows that he is by far the most important player for the Canucks offense. No one else was even close. Without him, it would dry up over night. But Hughes gets talked about as the team MVP, Markstrom gets talked about as the team MVP and even JT Miller got credit as team MVP. And the issue isn't that these guys aren't deserving of this talk, but that Elias isn't even in anyone's mind for this is mind blowing.
