Pettersson scores 2, Canucks edge Oilers 5-4 for first win of NHL pre-season
Wednesday’s game was played at a sold-out Abbotsford Centre, the home of Vancouver’s American Hockey League affiliate, the Abbotsford Canucks.
Pettersson put away his second goal of the night 9:45 into the period after Hyman was sent to the box for interference. Nugent-Hopkins levelled the score 6:16 into the third on a strange play. The veteran forward missed his first chance but still managed to get a shot off from his knees, and the puck sailed through traffic and past Martin to make it 4-4.
