Vancouver Canucks forwards are some of the best in the league, according to NHL Network.

Vancouver Canucks forwards are some of the best in the league, according to NHL Network.

Elias Pettersson and J.T. Miller were ranked 28th and 30th on NHL Network's top 50 players in the league. 

Miller set a career-high 103-point season in 23-24. The "second-line" center is in line for potentially an even bigger year as the Canucks have upgraded their forward depth. Daniel Sprong and Jake DeBrusk were signed to help the Canucks get the Canucks some goalscoring help. 

Despite playing through an injury from January onward in 23-24, Pettersson still had a successful season. After an incredible 102-point season in 22-23, Pettersson looked like he would blow past that number. He finished with 89 points but still was effective throughout his game despite dealing with tendonitis. 

Like Miller, Pettersson could be in for an even bigger season with the upgrades of the wingers. Nils Hoglander is another year into development and coming off a career-high 24-goal season.
