Canucks: Predicting which NHL awards Pettersson will win
Team awards
Presidents’ Trophy: 2 wins
Pettersson has already taken certain aspects of the Canucks to new heights. He’s a big part of the team’s top four power play, and he’ll be the driving force of Vancouver as they enter their Stanley Cup window.
With a well-crafted core all under the age of 25 now surrounding Pettersson in Vancouver in the likes of Quinn Hughes, Brock Boeser, Bo Horvat, and Thatcher Demko, the Canucks will have a longer Stanley Cup window than most. If things go swimmingly, Pettersson and company could rack up a couple of Presidents’ Trophy wins. If Pettersson plays his entire career with the Canucks you can expect him to help the team win it at least twice.
Clarence S. Campbell Bowl: 2 wins
Awarded to the team that comes out of the West to represent their conference in the Finals, I expect that when Pettersson and the Canucks are at the peak of their relationship, this team has what it takes to make the finals more than once.
Pettersson is a winner. He won’t be satisfied if he only makes the finals once in his career. Like many great players before him, he’ll find a way to be a consistent presence in championship games.
Stanley Cup: 2 wins
The holy grail of championships. Awarded to the winner of the Stanley Cup playoffs, this championship only gets lifted by the world’s best champions. You reach this level and you’ve done it all. This is what every kid dreams of one day doing in the National Hockey League.
Like millions of people before him, Pettersson drools over the idea of winning this prestigious award. His drive to do what it takes will be what pushes him over the edge and brings this team their first-ever Stanley Cup.
Dripping with the will to win, Pettersson will do anything and everything in his power to cement his name among the best of all-time. He knows winning this championship more than once is the perfect way to do it.
