If Elias Pettersson does in fact get traded from Vancouver this season, fans won't have seen the last of him in a Canucks uniform. The superstar 26-year-old forward will make his return from injured reserve to the Vancouver Canucks per general manager Patrik Allvin.

Vancouver Canucks star Elias Pettersson is a trade candidate this season. This was the case before the Canucks placed him on injured reserve back on January 3. It stems from a reported rift between him and J.

The Vancouver Canucks are expected to receive a massive boost to their lineup as Elias Pettersson has been activated from IR. Pettersson has missed the last six games with an upper-body injury but is expected to return to the ice against the Carolina Hurricanes.
