Pettersson is a treat to watch when he has the puck on his stick. He is a shifty skater with slick mobility in all directions and combines it well with smooth, deceptive hands. He keeps his transition play clean, breaking the puck out effectively through cross-lane feeds and executing stretch passes with ease. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
