VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Four-time All-Star Elias Pettersson agreed to an eight-year contract extension with the Vancouver Canucks, the team announced Saturday.
Terms of the deal, which kicks in next season, were not disclosed.
“I’m super excited, this is where I wanted to be,” Pettersson said at a news conference.
The star center referenced the impact president of hockey operations Jim Rutherford and general manager Patrik Allvin have had in helping assure him his future is in Vancouver.
