Ottawa Senators Sign Oskar Pettersson

June 15, 2023 at 11:16 am CDT | by Josh Erickson 3 Comments

The Ottawa Senators have signed forward Oskar Pettersson to a three-year, entry-level contract, the team announced today. Financial details were not disclosed.

The 19-year-old Swedish prospect had a strong season in his home country. A cerebral and speedy winger, Pettersson tallied two points and 33 penalty minutes in 29 regular-season games with Rogle BK of the SHL, his first pro experience. In Sweden’s U20 league with Rogle’s top junior team, Pettersson led his team in points per game among players with at least 10 games, recording 23 goals and 10 assists in 24 games.

Senators general manager Pierre Dorion gave a statement on Pettersson’s signing:

Oskar has quickly become one of the organization’s top prospects. He had a strong first pro season and showcases a similar maturity level to players who are much older than he. A north/south winger who has demonstrated that he’s capable of playing in all situations, he routinely utilizes his speed to effectively cycle the puck. He’s a smart player with good habits; his work ethic alone is certain to be of considerable value to him as he strives to take the next step.

Selected by the Senators with the 72nd overall pick in the third round of the 2022 NHL Draft, Pettersson joins two other players from the team’s draft class who Ottawa has already signed: defensemen Tomas Hamara (87th overall) and Jorian Donovan. Pettersson is expected to attend the Senators’ upcoming annual development camp before returning to Rogle for the next season, the team said.

Given his age, Pettersson is eligible for a one-year slide on this deal if he plays less than 10 NHL games. With Pettersson not expected to see NHL ice in 2023-24, his three-year contract will likely kick in for the 2024-25 campaign.

    Not really worth posting his TopDownHockey NHLe projection since theyve nerfed SHL into the dirt, but his is 1% star and 3% NHL full timer.

    Surely higher than that.

      Yeah, I find that model to be less accurate than Bader’s, mainly because Bader will take the league more suited to the player’s skills into evaluation, meaning he considered this year’s junior production instead of pro production. Even then, it’s not spectacular – 27% NHL prob and 2% star prob. Worth noting his NHL prob did jump about 10% from last year to this year.
