Since the Vancouver Canucks traded away forward JT Miller, Elias Pettersson has been taking full advantage of the situation.

The New York Rangers play the Vancouver Canucks in Manhattan on Saturday afternoon. Both teams are the first team out in their respective conference, so it is a vital game. It also is the final chapter in one of the season’s most bizarre storylines.

The game will be Miller’s first against the Canucks since they traded him to New York in January. He played 404 games with Vancouver and emerged as one of the league’s premier centers while with the club. He’s one of only two players in Canucks history, along with Pavel Bure, to average more than a point per game.
