How ugly is the Pettersson buyout? I really just want to start fresh around Hughes (if Hughes will even go for that, otherwise it's just a fresh start, period).

D-Petey hasn’t been perfect but he’s so damn calm for a 20 year old. Just makes the plays under pressure
 
Trading Miller was still the dumbest thing imaginable and I'm going to keep saying that. We we're doomed the second that trade happened.
What would take a bit of the sting away would be knowing exactly what all happened with this club that lead to the trade. It would still suck but at least the fans could potentially reconcile it if they had the full story.

It’s honestly wild how we go from being this upcoming, exciting, youngish team with Horvat, Miller, Pettersson, Demko, Hughes to management blowing it up and completely destroying it.
I dunno man, I feel a lot of it's on the players. Everything started imploding because Pettersson became a lemon and then there's the longstanding feud with Miller or whatever Miller's problem was. Maybe I'm letting management off the hook here but they couldn't have foreseen the core of this team suddenly being duds (Hughes notwithstanding of course).

They were doing great up until the all star game. Then it just fell apart. Management understandably figured they'd all get their shit together and stayed the course. The deadline is another story. That's on management, no doubt.
