Pederson was acquired by Vancouver in a trade with the Carolina Hurricanes in October. Looking for a contract? Whereas last season saw J. T. Miller in headlines, with possible trade destinations floated for a guy who arguably carried the Canucks through 2021-22, this season, he has gotten scoring help from Bo Horvat, Elias Pettersson and freshman sensation Andrei Kuzmenko. But some of those players have been reportedly dog-eared for transaction. Yes, even the first-year Kuzmenko isn’t off-limits. Admittedly, he isn’t technically a rookie at age 26, being brought over from SKA St.
Petersburg on a one-year entry-level contract. He dominated the KHL last season with 53 points in 45 games, and the success has translated in the NHL. So trading the likes of Kuzmenko, Horvat — not to mention the grab bag of Brock Boeser as a reclamation project, Luke Schenn as a dependable veteran defensive pick up a la Josh Manson, high-value targets like Conor Garland, Ethan Bear and others — makes for a scenario where the Canucks organization goes full-circle rebuild that started with Bruce Boudreau signing last season and the subsequent roster moves since then. With two recent wins under their belt, the Sharks may be facing an opponent akin to a disturbed hornets’ nest.
Can the Sharks expose the young, inexperienced goaltender this time? Tanner Pearson and Tucker Poolman also remain out for the Canucks, who were injured earlier this season. The Sharks are looking happy and healthy after the holiday break, but Luke Kunin will miss the rest of the season with an ACL injury. Tomas Hertl will return after serving a two-game suspension. The Sharks continue the tour of old friends, after playing against Jacob Middleton last week.
It’s not a perfect mantra, but more puck possession equals more goals. To add to this, Pettersson spends a lot of time and effort on the power play and is one of Vacouver’s most effective players on the top power play unit. NaturalStatTrick. com Adjusting for time spent at 5-on-4, we can exclude Joshua Dakota who has spent a rate of just 0:47 seconds and Garland with 1:26 of power play time in the last 10 games. That leaves Pettersson at the top of the team with an adjusted rate of 9. 27 points in the past eight games. The next player with comparable time on ice at 5-on-4 is Horvat, who has an adjusted rate of 6. 98 points.
Since then, Spencer Martin has taken the reins, going 10-5-1 this season. San Jose faced Martin last time, in the overtime loss. Can the Sharks expose the young, inexperienced goaltender this time?

So what’s contributing to his success? It’s at least a two-fold answer, but both reasons have to do with how he’s deployed. First off, Pettersson is centering Vancouver’s third line. So putting on the tinfoil hat: take away any situational stimulant from the game and Pettersson is facing off against the Nick Boninos, Nico Sturms and Matt Nietos of the world. His line mates are Kuzmenko — who’s been a success on his own — and ex-Shark Pederson.

Sharks at Canucks Preview: The Karlsson Pettersson dynamicThe Vancouver Canucks (15-15-3, sixth Pacific) host the San Jose Sharks (11-18-6, seventh Pacific) at Roger’s Arena in the third installation of what has been a close-scoring series of games between the Pacific division foes this season. The Canucks beat the Sharks in November, then earlier this month by one-goal margins. Both of those games were played at the Tank, with tonight’s match-up being the first to take place in Vancouver.
