He collected a pass from rookie sensation Elias Pettersson in the slot and flipped the puck over Dubnyk’s blocker.“He’s got eyes in the back of his head and sometimes when you least expect it, it’s on your tape,” Leivo said. “So I’ve just got to be ready whenever he’s got the puck.”The 25-year-old left wing was traded to Vancouver from Toronto on Monday for AHL forward Michael Carcone.
