Couple of years ago, JFresh ranked Marcus Pettersson at the 96th percentile in WAR, mostly on the strength of even-strength defence and PK. Has anybody got access to a more recent card for him?
I think the Canucks paid far too much for their whistle (like Treliving when he landed Hamonic), but a defenceman who can actually defend was definitely something they needed.
