Who's who you gonna be keeping an eye on? Who are your players to watch Matthew
0:04
Leos Pettersson is my biggest one because like they said at the end of that series
0:09
it's a reset for him now. I mean, zero started zero zero again. I you know, you can say yes
0:15
he struggled in that predators series. But I look back to when the Canucks were, it's funny
0:20
because the last time they played the predators, I, the sedans were non existent in that series
0:26
And they were always everyone's worried about why they're not doing anything. And then they played against the Sharks and the city and were one of their best, two of their best
0:34
players in that series. So this is a reset. If Pettersson can get going and see oilers
0:39
everyone goes from forget what he did against the predators, what it's the struggles were at
0:43
the end of the season. I and he dominates or not dominates or just was good against the oilers and
0:50
get some points. I everyone's gonna forget about it. So I mean, he's got to be good. He's got to
0:56
be better than he has been. And he's definitely capable of it. I mean, his points against the
1:00
oilers, I believe he's up there. It's not like they've been able to shut him down. He's got quite
1:05
a few points against them. Another thing is, is another guy will be watching is I'd say that whole
1:12
line, just like I said, in the article I wrote just before the game, game six, was Pettersson's
1:19
line of Ilya Mikheyev and Niels Hoeglander. Mikheyev hasn't has one goal in 50 games. So I mean
1:25
I'm not expecting him to score, but it'd be nice if he did. Niels Hoeglander wasn't that good in
1:31
the series. I thought he was gonna be a lot better. He was okay. I mean, he started becoming
1:36
more noticeable in the last couple games. But against the oilers, where you need some depth
1:40
scoring, I think Hoeglander has got to be good. I mean, the other guys, of course, watching Brock
1:46
Besser, because he had the four goal game in his first game against the oilers this season kind of
1:50
got him on the right track with his confidence. So I'm going to see if he can maybe score and be
1:56
be a thorn in the oiler side, because he did score quite a few goals against them. So I'm sure
2:01
they're going to be looking to make sure he doesn't do that. So those are definitely the guys
2:06
will be watching throughout this series. In addition to the goaltending, because we don't know
2:11
is Shulov's going to be the guy? Or are we going to see maybe De Smith? Maybe Demko? I don't know
2:17
I will have to see where that all goes. But that's basically what I'll be watching
