This summer I had a little more time to train.”
“It’s not a distraction. You guys make it a distraction,” Pettersson told reporters. “I’m happy now, but I just want to focus on the season.”Pettersson’s contract situation will likely be on his mind at times during the season, but hockey will be his primary focus, said teammate J.T. Miller.
