As the NHL season resumes, so does the Elias Pettersson saga with the Vancouver Canucks. The organization hoped that the 26-year-old star center, who was signed to an eight-year contract extension worth $92.

There had been rumblings that Pettersson could also be traded, but after Miller was shown the exit door, it seems Vancouver is committed to keeping the 26-year-old around. According to Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects, the Canucks have pulled Pettersson off the trade block prior to the 4-Nations Face-Off.

While the 4 Nations Face-Off has wrapped up, it’s time for NHL clubs to get back together and get ready for their weekend slate of games. On Friday, Vancouver Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet said Elias Pettersson’s status is day-to-day following an injury sustained at the 4 Nations.
