I think that's a pretty fair Pettersson trade, but it feels like hitting one bird with two stones...CBJ aren't a single center away from being a true competitor; one of the other holes we have is top-pair RD, even with Severson. Jiricek and the 3OA selection should fill both of those holes, and it makes more sense to just keep what we have. This move makes the overall team worse, the long-term future worse, and creates another unnecessary hole.
That said...I fully expect Jarmo to be putting in the paperwork now.
