Vancouver Canucks rookie Elias Pettersson ‘feeling good’ after concussion
VANCOUVER — Elias Pettersson hopes he never has to go through the NHL’s concussion protocol again.
“It’s been very boring. I’d like to not do it again in my career,” the Vancouver Canucks rookie said on Tuesday after practising with his teammates for the first time in more than a week.
“To be honest it sucks to not play games and I want to get back as quick as possible.”
The 19-year-old has been out of the lineup since he suffered his first-ever concussion on Oct. 13 on a hit by Florida’s Mike Matheson.
