28 Marcus Pettersson D

Ducks' Marcus Pettersson: Four points in rookie season

Pettersson mainly worked in the bottom defensive pairing, as he averaged just 13:37 of ice time. The 21-year-old didn't shy away from NHL play, though, as he dished out 18 hits and stepped in front of 27 shots. Pettersson also spent 44 games with AHL San Diego and posted zero goals and 14 points. Veteran defenseman Kevin Bieksa missed 23 games due to injuries this season which allowed Pettersson to enter the lineup, so he'll battle with Andy Welinski for a full-time role next campaign.

The rookie defenseman has now recorded three assists and averaged 15:50 of ice time through his past four games. Pettersson should remain in a third-pairing role for the duration of Kevin Bieksa's (hand) injury absence, which makes the 21-year-old Swede an add candidate in cavernous fantasy settings. There's also a good chance that Pettersson keeps the job and pushes Bieksa or Francois Beauchemin out of the lineup when the Anaheim defense corps is healthy.

Ducks' Marcus Pettersson: Records first NHL goal

The Ducks called up the 21-year-old in the middle of February. Before Sunday, he had no points with a plus-1 rating and five shots in seven games. It was nice to see the kid get on the scoresheet, but it's unlikely he'll make a fantasy impact down the stretch.
