LATEST | An announcement has been made involving Elias Pettersson: Highlighted as one of the league's best
Canucks forward Elias Pettersson enters the 2023-24 season with a lot of pressure on him, including from himself, as he looks to repeat his performance from last season and reach the 100-point mark once again.
Pettersson has landed himself on several lists over the last few weeks which have highlighted him as one of the best players at his position and in general in the National Hockey League.
On Tuesday, Bleacher Report shared their top-ten centermen heading into the 2023-24 season and as you can guess, Elias Pettersson makes an appearance on their list.
Pettersson comes in at tenth on Bleacher Report's list and you could definitely make the case that he should be higher up, but having him in the 10 spot is probably the right decision given the other names highlighted.
1) Connor McDavid - Edmonton Oilers
2) Leon Draisaitl - Edmonton Oilers
3) Nathan MacKinnon - Colorado Avalanche
4) Jack Hughes - New Jersey Devils
5) Auston Matthews - Toronto Maple Leafs
6) Sidney Crosby - Pittsburgh Penguins
7) Brayden Point - Tampa Bay Lightning
8) Jack Eichel - Vegas Golden Knights
9) Aleksander Barkov - Florida Panthers
10) Elias Pettersson - Vancouver Canucks
