Nostalgic despite the Bad
This was one of my suggestions after the first few games when Pettersson was lighting it up. I pondered outloud If Pettersson should regularly play with Boeser by the time the season ended, and is Roussel would be the perfect linemate for them.
I mean, Roussel was playing a shift or a two with Boeser and Horvat on Thursday night... Baertschi was a better fit with those two, but Roussel alongside Boesser and EP could work in theory?
I'd worry more about EP and Boesser getting dragged into things playing alongside Roussel though rather than being protected by his presence. I like Roussel, but chippiness and after the whistle shenanigans just follow him due to his style of play.
