Petterson is a really slight guy and is always going to be more of a complementary guy in the playoffs. As with Kuzmenko I don't think he's a good fit for the style of hockey Tocchet wants the team to play as his production slowed down in the 2nd half of the season as the Canucks transitioned to a more defensive style of play as he's scored only 2 goals in his last 23 games. I don't think it really matters as the Canucks aren't going to win this series unless they start putting more pucks on net. Their low shot volume is totally ridiculous.
