I like Pettersson but I also think he hasn’t yet proven he’s a 2nd pairing guy. Not like Marino has. I also think the goal *should* be to find a good D so that he’s slotted into the #5 spot.
But I don’t think he’ll be terribly out of place or we’ll be severely harmed if we go into the season with him on the 2nd pair.
People I think don’t like him because he’s not real pretty out there and they misinterpret the stat of him being the “most hit” like it’s some kind of knock on him.
Petts just finished his 2nd NHL season I still think he can be a solid number 4
