A National Hockey League insider reveals the odds of the Vancouver Canucks trading away star forward Elias Pettersson before the deadline on Friday, March 6th. Earlier this month after announcing their plans to rebuild, the Vancouver Canucks began fielding calls on star forward Elias Pettersson , who looks a lot better this season than last, but has still struggled offensively in the last few years. Now, we know that there's been a ton of speculation from a media perspective on Pettersson's future with the Vancouver Canucks.
