Pettersson will draw back into the Canucks lineup after sitting out the last two games. Victor Mancini will sit in his place.

Pettersson has not played the previous two games due to an upper-body injury, but will re-enter the lineup on Wednesday against the Winnipeg Jets. The 21-year-old defenseman is averaging 12:31 time-on-ice and has two points (0G / 2A) in 15 games this season. Victor Mancini will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Pettersson's return.

Pettersson played only 4:06 time-on-ice before exiting Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Calgary Flames due to an upper-body injury. The 21-year-old defenseman is averaging 12:31 time-on-ice and has two points (0G / 2A) in 15 games this season.

Pettersson did not play the previous game for the Canucks but will re-enter the lineup on Wednesday against the Anaheim Ducks, replacing an injured Quinn Hughes (undisclosed). The 21-year-old Pettersson is averaging 12:23 time-on-ice and has one point (0G / 1A) in 10 games this season.

Let the confusion begin. Pettersson was selected in the third round of the 2022 NHL Entry Draft and is yet to make his NHL debut. The 20-year-old blue-liner has one goal and 12 assists in 36 AHL games this season. Defenceman Noah Juulsen was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday in a corresponding move.
