Scoring goals are one of the most important things a hockey team needs. For the Vancouver Canucks, they have struggled mightily with this since 2015, finishing 29th, 29th and 26th in offence.
Brock Boeser was a major addition to the roster, revitalizing a stagnant power play. However, his raw talent only bumped the Canucks up three spots in their rankings. Regardless, the wunderkind, Elias Pettersson, will add something to the lineup. Will that be enough? We will see, but I have my doubts considering how little the Canucks improved despite adding Boeser last year.
