Petan is 4y Lindholm’s junior and projects as at least a bottom-6 centre at the NhL level. Lindholm hasn’t scored a goal in over 50 games. And he’s played LW more often than C with the Leafs. The Leafs, organizationally, need more young talent up the middle and Petan fits the bill. Now they have Brooks and Petan up the middle on their middle-6 with the Marlies which (with Mueller on the 1st line) is’t too shabby.
Edit: In case it wasn’t obvious: I score this as a short term WPG win but beyond 3 months and overall a TOR win.
