An early link up with Vancouver Canucks rookie Elias Pettersson has proved to be a stupendous on ice combination for Nikolay Goldobin.
Moving forward after the EP40 injury, Goldy has shown that he is playing with more confidence compared to last season, let’s talk about why and how.
The former 27th overall pick in the 2014 NHL entry draft has shown many small signs of brilliance in his young professional hockey career. Scoring in his first game for the Canucks — and then being sat for leaving the zone too early — dangling through Drew Doughty last season as if he was a scarecrow on skates was another beautiful show of skill.
