I was reading here when he was obtained that he was a steaming pile,and now he's a desirable commodity,oh how that pendulum swings.

I wonder how many watched him play. I’m willing to bet basically none of them. That’s usually why I shut the f*** up.
For a throw away player by Detroit to acquire Petry I am very satisfied with what he brings.
Is there room moving forward with both he and Kovasevic (another player I appreciate) longterm?

No both will eventually be traded or not signed (if there's no interest). If there's a place for them long term it means the rebuild failed miserably.

True - but a team needs the right type of jersey fillers during a season to fill in during periods of injury / as a 7D
Lindström is far superior as a jersey filler vs Wideman for example
Him and Kovacevic are more stop gap until Reinbacher, Mailloux or Konyushkov (not until 2026-2027) are ready to come over to the NHL.
Both him and Kovacevic make fine 7th D as well, so one of them might stick around longer.

Don't be surprised if the waiver ineligible players end up in Laval to pump up some trade value. Xhekaj was already sent and don't be surprised if Harris and Struble are too. Ironically the worst preseason dman in Barron outplayed everyone for a real spot. One of Savard, lindstrom or kovacevic will be traded by the deadline.

There may be a spot for someone like Kovy as a depth defenceman but my guess is he’ll want to play for a team where he can have a chance to play higher up in the line up, and like someone else said if we’re a team that can give him that opportunity, something went wrong with the rebuild.

I thought he was nuts for saying that especially after how shitty he looked in Laval, although all the D outside of Struble have struggled badly at times but still I thought what the f*** did they trade for this guy for, (never heard of him before we traded for him)
We need to get from appreciate to ADORE. But I get what you are saying man.

Big jersey filler that can skate and join the attack though, I find he fits into the team style instead of the team having to play boring defensive hockey to accomodate their jersey-filler’s play styles and shortcomings…
