C'mon guys, he scored 5 goals in 100+ games with us.
You can criticize his usage and linemates, but good players find a way to make themselves useful.
I can think of a game earlier this year where Roslovic literally pushed from behind to skate faster on the the back check.

So the guy got a goal on a perfect set up last night, big Whoop. The guy had plenty of chances here and failed miserably.
I know Winnipeggers are obsessed with the under dog with Petan being one for sure. I wanted him to excel here as much as the other guy, especially after his World Junior performance, but he didn’t or couldn’t bring it.
He’s to slow, his size didn’t help him, was a turnover machine, and is a not a “worker” ala Perrault.
Kypreos said it best, he scored in a game that wasn’t heavey or physical.
This undying love for the guy is mystifying.
