Rick Tocchet on the #LetsGoPetey chants: The fans were unreal. Them yelling his name, that's pretty cool. #Canucks @Sportsnet650
Elias Pettersson: It means a lot. It was encouraging to have the fans behind you. I always have that here, but to hear them chant my name, it just makes me want to work harder for them. #Canucks @Sportsnet650
Let's Go Petey indeed. Full marks for starting that sequence and then making the play at the net front. Great goal from the 'Nucks.
Can't say those "Let's Go Petey!" chants didn't give him jump tonight...
