The way he said he was happy, it sounded so genuine, that literally gives me hope😅
Remember tavares
what are players supposed to say at these type of questions? Gaudreau and Tavares said they were happy too before adios. none of us knows. ultimately it's the individuals decision as with all jobs.
@@okyouknowwhatever true, I am probably just gullible, It would be brutal if he left Vancouver
@@okyouknowwhatever I mean I really haven't heard any players say they're NOT happy even when you or us as fans know they're probably not... To me, I read through his tone that he's not as happy as it may seem by the slight pause and his answer and the sigh his delivery.. 🤷.. IDK, being a Detroit fan of all of my sports this reminds me of the Matthew Stafford situation we recently had a couple years ago when we all had a feeling that he was going to be traded but when you hear Stafford toxin interviews he said all the right things but you just knew in the back of your head that he really wasn't and he was probably just as frustrated if not more with the management and whatnot.. It became to the point where even us as fans wanted better for him and to get out of Detroit for more of his own good because we did not see a good future for our Detroit Lions at the time.. it's just as being honest with ourselves as fans.. and of course he leaves to go to the Rams and when's a Super Bowl.. now our Detroit Lions is on the trending upwards of success.. but yeah I feel Canucks fans feel a lot of the same way about EP tbh.. I just feel that they think he's not happy and for good reasoning.. 🤷
it seemed very fake to me. he wants to leave and i believe its the fans fault
Agree with everything he said...Even he admits the defence is bad.
Swedish players are very loyal in general.. and i'm sure he will 100% stay
Just give him 100m already 😅
Did not expect marek to have a full sleeve lmao
They keep Marek on a shorter leash on SN. If you can ever find the old Puck Daddy podcasts he did with Greg Wyshynski on Yahoo - solid gold hockey coverage and you get a lot more strong takes from him and a lot more wacky humour (Hologram Bill Masterton). We get like the tip of the iceberg on 32 Thoughts. :(
Same. 🤩
Why does it look new lol
He has come along nicely. Bigger, stronger, mentally and physically.
his overall growth has been genuinely impressive.
@@SssshirazzzZ The sudden transition is bothersome. Just hope it's natural and not drugs.
@@danceswithcritters Most likely heroin and crack cocaine.
@@danceswithcritters He went from teenage kid to adult so not unexpected. Drugs aren’t the source of his skills.
@@thebigpicture2032 Maybe you need to stop the drugs.
Pettersson is one of my favorite Canuck players right now. I believe Kuzemko and him will have good chemistry. I just hope Canucks management and coaching staff keeps him happy and helping him bring his A game for many years. Vancouver needs great players that become a part of our legacy, like Trevor Linden, Kirk McLean, and the Sedin twins.
He's our Pavel Bure enjoy
@@gerichoacosta2553 I was gonna mention Pavel Bure. He's actually my all-time favorite Canuck player. I just wasn't sure if he put in enough years to be included with the other players I mentioned. But what an exciting Canuck player he was. I listened to Pavel Bure's first two games on the radio with Jim Robson. You already knew that big things were gonna happen after his first two games as a Canuck.
I love this guy. On and off the ice. 100% he is genuine in how he feels about staying and is not going anywhere. As a Canucks fan definitely my favorite player these days and would have made an incredible offensive defenseman.
Petey boosting Schenn’s trade value 🔥🔥
The awkwardness is still there and probably always will be, but this guy will grow in time and I think he will be a lot more transparent and give really enjoyable interviews in the future. He says it like he sees it-kind of a guy.
The awkwardness is part of his look tho! too many hockey players sound the exact same it’s nice to see someone who is real.
He’s not awkward, he’s real and thinks about what he says. Refreshing to see from a hockey player.
If I can throw my two cents into the pile: As a Swede I'd say him being shy and/or awkward will lessen every year.
I've seen Swedish interviews from his hometown, essentially at his safest place and in his own language. He's a quiet guy but has a unique sense of humor and isn't really that awkward. As he grows with the English language he'll be able to really express things in a more precise and colorful way that sometimes hold people back from really showing their personality in a second language. He's fairly quiet and at times direct in an almost blunt way but not really awkward or even that shy. In essence I'd bet that those aspects will go away with time.
@@omgnuub I agree, I speak two languages too and yah ur personality literally changes for some people when u speak a diferent language.
Elias has to translate in his head all the time how he speaks in English, combine that with being a genuine person, a little bit autistic like I would say, in a good way, that rhymed hey hey. He's all good though don't worry, he's still a kid.
Jeff Marek with the sick sleeve 🤟🏽😎
he looks like a criminal
This is real viking stoic personality he really gave a heartfelt interview
He's a lot bigger now than when he first got to Vancouver.
True look at those forearms 😍
Gotta be over 185, easy
I mean I really haven't heard any players say they're NOT happy even when you or us as fans know they're probably not...

great interview. i'm sure the environment helped a lot.
Love these interviews
I wonder if Petey can work with malhotra as like a personal coach in the summers or is he bound too the leafs? Because I remember when burrows started to take face offs and malhotra helped him alot with that. The guy in general was a faceoff machine because of how low to the ground he would get. So Petey saying he wants to work on that I wonder if he could work with manny during the off-season at all?
He reminded me a bit like Henrik in the way he talked, but that might be just me :D
ITs Your Swedish - that You Are Good at ?
Still struggling to express himself in English but definitely on the right track to improve his media management skills if there is such a thing 😄
As a Swede i know exactly his thought processes when he tries to come up with the English word. I can almost see his brain working :) But yeah. i was just about to say his English has improved massively
Would love to have Elias rejoin to his home team Timrå IK in the SHL after his NHL career. Emil Pettersson who's Elias big brother returned to TIK this season, and our dream would be to have them play together in Timrå IK sometime in the future. They're both very talented even though Elias comes out on top. Emil is considered a top-tier player in the SHL and is. Anyway Interesting interview with Elias. Thanks!
Well done - fantastic interview and great to get a glimpse of the real Pettersson. Tx.
Future Canucks captain
the fact that canucks media (mostly on twitter) is using this interview to suggest there is bad blood between teammates is a bit out of proportion. Petey has improved a lot in interviews but clearly he still has some limits in his responses (which is fine). But to suggest that because he selected those words, that means he's x, y, or z is exactly why people think Canuck media is toxic.
Loved this interview
Passionate is the word he was looking for.
"Who should get more attention" "ummmmmmm.......I was going to say the guy who just left" ohhhhh man Elias is sad af Bo left!!!
look at those tat sleeves on Jeff Marek man! didn't know he was so gangsta!
My life goal is now having a bbq with Peterson
If you start spelling his name right you'll increase your chances
Hope you can cook better than you can spell. 😂
I'm not on board with question where he and the team could be in trouble if he answers the wrong way. Internal conflicts are always present in a team and going public doesn't help at all.
PS. Hope Elias get to play in a good organisation before he retire.
He will. In Vancouver.
Great interview
stud
Elias is all grown up now. No more shy guy, really has it together. GO PETEY...
Great lighting.
I'd love to see the Alien Death Stare at all those dumb media questions. 😂
Brutal to watch them ask him if he likes his teammates. Like. What the hell is he gonna say?
can't lie, i'm kind of scared to watch now with that title hahahaha
Finland is the little brother. Finns care about beating Sweden, Sweden cares about beating canada :P
Wow did not know Merrick have mad tattoos.
Sportsnet. Enough. You've been hammering the Canucks relentlessly. You all said the Bruce Boudreau situation was tough to watch while broadcasting every minute detail ad nauseam. I find sports media disingenuous to say the least. Oh, and the Spanish Flu originated in Kansas.
I appreciate the ask, but wth else do you think he's gonna answer?
"No, I'm not so happy here"
"No, I don't like JT"
You can easily read what he's actually thinking/trying to say cause he's not a native speaker. It's pretty clear he doesn't vibe with Miller (of course he's gonna say his relationship is "good", the rest of that bit was telling though). Don't know if he could handle the captaincy as this point though. Henrik Sedin is Swedish and could convey his thoughts a lot better.
A lot of people don’t like teammates/office staff/work place employee etc.
Part of life. Says more about person able to perform (career year) in not ideal circumstances.
There's something there with Miller. He's a Swede, just being polite
Petey's always come across a little moody and awkward.
Idk why people always want the star player to be the captain. Petey is a great guy and player but he doesnt give captain vibes. Luke Schenn on the other hand seems like he would make a great captain
"The rest of it was a bit telling though", said the wannabe psychiatrist.
Who would be happy playing for a franchise that blades their own?
holy marek with the full sleeve
acorse hes happy in van because gold is the most important
Probably not as he sees time ticking down on his career as the owners keep bungling the operations of team and personnel from top to bottom and the Rutherford appointment is turning into yet another huge mistake, I'm a life long Canucks fan I was at their first NHL game in 1970 but 50 + years in I am tired and disgusted by the enormous scale of their failures.....a simple success rule for owners , keep your goddamned hands off the team.......PERIOD!!!! let things take their course organically DO NOT TOUCH EVER , it literally is NOT YOUR JOB!!!
Remember, Rome was not bulit in one full day. (Major) changes takes time...
To hot headed I love it
Was waiting for Friedman to find out if he was ticklish. Perhaps off camera.
He thinks before he speaks. You can see the hampster wheel spinning when his mind is digesting a question.
Petey for Captain!!!!!
Good thing he's so stoic, it's hard to tell if he's serious when he says he's happy in Vancouver lol how could anybody want to play for the owner Aquilini, and even Rutherford and Allvin...they're so in the dark about what the fans want and what the franchise needs. They go and trade their beloved captain Horvat and they don't even get a depth defenseman back. Now they have less offense and the same defensive problems. Just sell everything not named Pettersson and Hughes and try to get Bedard
I liked the trade. We’ll worry about d men after this season, I’d rather fall as far down the standings as possible for now. Also we did already get Ethan bear (depth defensemen)
Bos going back down to earth offensively in ny
better weather
Jeffery, with the tats. Didn’t know that about him.
He will make a better leader than Henrik, you need to think before you speak but also some fire he doesn’t take shiet on the ice. He will try and hammer guys.
Don’t you think it was obvious that Daniel and Henrik were ultra competitive, and that set a level of expectation that has gone since their departure?
Petey clearly has that same quiet intensity to him, but I feel he’s very much of the same ilk in terms of leading by example rather than getting wound up in a game and playing way more physically, in the style of Iginla for example. If the team all get behind the idea he’s their leader I think it’ll be very similar to Henrik’s captaincy, just perhaps without as much tolerance for media duties.
True I just think Petey will do what ever it takes to win. And i dont think he will drop his mitts but he has been playing hard blocks shots digs in the corners and will lay a guy out. He’s very rounded and tough Swedish player. Something i never believed when Van drafted him.
Headline written in Toronto.
Either him or Luke schenn for captain
Broberg is a Stalin and he's getting better every game! Desharnais might be their best shutdown defenseman and Connor wants him in the lineup!!!
championship staff just give it a year or 2 and the staff started off by easliy winning the horvat trade
honestly this could be true like next season the team could go crazy and trade whos needed and the prospects start becoming nhl players and we could make changes to make it all work
Next season is franchise defining. They are out of the playoff race halfway through the season, could pick it up but I’d bet against it. If they do bad again it’s time to sell and rebuild, but if they do good it’s a whole other story.
@@owenposer6720 yh i want them just to either rlly bad for top 3 pick or go like 30 and 0 and make the playoffs bc they still have a bit of a future and they just need to do the same but better next season
Why they bother my mans while he on the beach working on his tan leave captain Pettey alone mannnn Hahahahhahaah
I'm a Canucks fan and I wouldn't want to play in Vancouver. I wouldn't want to play anywhere else in Canada either for that matter. If you're a competitive person, you want the chance to play for the Stanley Cup and it's clear that the way the system is set up, no Canadian team will ever win the Cup ever again. I love Canada, but if I wanted to win anything, I'd want to play almost anywhere in the US over Canada. You get to play in a market where there's a lot less pressure to win game to game, and if you have a bad year, the fans just turn to their real favourite sport. So if your rebuild takes longer than fans anticipate, no harm no foul. In Canadian markets, there's the general expectation that you're going to at least be a playoff team every year. So GMs take shortcuts to get there and that means long term success is sacrificed for short term mediocrity. I wouldn't blame him for wanting to go somewhere else, with or without the turmoil in the organization. He's not winning a Cup here, especially not this specific Canadian team. I'm also seeing far fewer players these days take discounts to stay with their current club. If you can't pony up the dough, they'll go somewhere else.
Canucks fan too, but please explain why canadians teams don't win? I'm curious as to what you mean /Tom
@@tombergendahl7652 in a guess? Crushing higher taxes I’d wager
It's just luck sometimes like with Pittsburgh, Capitals, Colorado,Tampa, Chicago teams that were bad for a long time then built through the draft landing franchise players. Then you look at Oilers they were bad at the wrong years when drafts weren't that great except for McDavid and Drysitatl. Canucks had bad picks that set them back with Virtanen, Jolevi. Then trying to make quick fixes trading away picks.
103.4 MPH.
Marek looks pained at Elliot’s questions lol
Would rather have had him say " Stanley Cup is #1 " but you don't get that much from overseas...perhaps give the farm to someone who wants that dream .....
Calling it now, the GM and President will bury this franchise into the worst state it's ever been in. Those two guys are an embarassment to a pro franchise in 2023 with the roles they hold. Put Pat LaFontaine and Ted Nolan in their positions.
that comment hasn't aged too well
Wow you tube had turned into GOSSIP central🤪
Isles will make room. Come on over bring Ah Two Rah Two with ya
To go from living in THE most beautiful city in North America to living in a septic tank called New York? Uh....no thanks.
Maybe if you PAID me 8.5 million.....
Why is sportsnet trying to embarrass Peterson. Seriously. I’m truly disgusted with the jabroney interviewers.
Did You know - How to spell His name ?.
the guy doesnt have the face of a guy who has an arm sleeve
Wants out of vancouver after his contract
Said the wannabe psychiatrist. 🙄
Who would be happy with this team? What else is this gonna say? lmao
is anyone happy in canada?
lol nope, everyone knows damn well a Canadian team won’t win a cup anytime soon
Yep, love living in our igloos and riding our moose
i wonder this too but not only hockey related but with everything else too. seems to be a lot of whiny, toxic and unhappy people from Canada, and their PM is a such a goof.
@@okyouknowwhatever those are just the Torontonians, don't mind them
@@okyouknowwhatever Lol America is the most whiny country in the world. Look at all the protests, Karens, guns crazy feminists. Canada isn't perfect but overall quality of life is much better. I agree with Trudeau is a clown but America also had Trump,Biden and other goofy presidents.
Get rid of Miller
The franchise is a mess. Until aquilini sells the team or stops meddling it won’t get better.
Money makes players happy. Elias will be happiest in WHATEVER city offers him the MOST 💰 money. Just ask Bo.
Unless he's like Kuzmenko where money is important to some extent but secondary to other things. Will really depend on how down to earth he is
@@rrhev reasonable comments on the internet are generally frowned upon, sir.
When Boudreau & Horvat boarded flights out of Vancouver, hughes & pettersson were probably chasing them screaming “take us with you, please”.
Lol he's lying. He'll be asking for a trade after they go 2-8 to start next season
Who is happy about losing? Dumb question.
Nobody is happy, time to sell the Canucks to new Ownership or move them.
That was almost as boring as all star game itself!
NOBODY is happy in Vancouver 🤣.... Go Leafs
I doubt he's happy in Vancouver with such a bad management team and owners....
ITs The waeather and The Jerico Beach !
He’s the franchise player here and beloved. If he goes elsewhere he won’t get that
He's gone as soon as he gets a chance
Said the wannabe psychiatrist. 🙄
Aww poor emo, y'all needed to make a safe space for him
Petey’s lying. His body language says it all. He’s not happy in Vancouver. I’m from here, a fan and I cannot blame him for wanting to go.
Whether he’s lying or not (put in a position where he almost has to claim he’s happy), there’s not much reason for anyone associated with the team to be pleased with the Canucks right now.
I thought the most interesting part was that JT Miller is a colleague, not a friend, and seemingly a frustrating one at that. As a fan of the team I feel that but I don’t necessarily expect the same sentiment from someone within the team itself.
You are sure about that, are ya? I get so sick of the negative ism
Mereks tattoo does not suit him at all
See kids, you outgrow tattoos. Thank twice.
This constant gossiping, trying to stir up controversy and starting drama .. is not good for the game. No wonder the NHL thought that the LGBQT nonsense would be accepted.
petey needs to put on some weight and learn puckl control from sedins n he will take next step 4 sure 100 point guy incoming. also if work on his skating but that should come with added muscle. 10 more pounds should do the trick.
Who cares if he's happy or not he's here to do a job and play a game that he loves and he's getting paid well for it so there should be no excuses regardless
How many people in real world are happy in their jobs
He is obligated to say yes.. I know If i was in his shoes, this team is a dumpster fire and I would want out
I think he’d be better off leaving. For the sake of me continuing to pay attention to the team I don’t want that to happen but with the state of the roster, contracts and prospects I think medium to long term the Canuck absolutely should trade he and rebuild again from the ground up. It’s going to take years to turn this team around.
