That is bullshit.
Pettersson had fantastic chemistry with Dahlén in Timrå. Everyone was extatic about that dynamic duo (and that backstory is probably why the Canucks decided to get both...).
Then they went their seperate ways, and without his best buddy, Petey obliterated the scoring record set by Kent Nilsson in the 1970’s for an under 20 player in the SHL, won the league scoring title and was named league MVP as well as playoffs MVP as his team won the Swedish championship. He was then invited to play in the world championship, where Sweden won gold.
Then he crossed the Atlantic, came to completely new surroundings and a different sized rink, not a single player he knew, and he broke the franchise rookie scoring record set by Bure.
And you worry ”what if Boeser is the only winger he can play with....”
Seriously. That is bullshit.
