The Canucks are rolling, and so is Elias Pettersson, the Swede Superstar collected his 12th points of the last 4 games and just sealed the game in Pittsburgh with this beautiful breakaway goal.

Filip Hronek broke a 3-on-1 and sent his teammate on a breakaway, Pettey slid the puck right through Jarry's legs for another game winning goal.


The Canucks' number 40 has now scored the team's game winning goal in 4 back-to-back games. A feat that only happened on 3 occasions since the NHL was created.
