Undrafted 2nd year defenseman Jody Pederson(25) starts the season pretty much where he ended last year with the ECHL Stockton Thunder. He also appeared in 11 games with their AHL affiliate, Worcester Sharks on two separate call-ups (one from Elmira), registering 3 assists but was also a healthy scratch much of the time.
If the injury bugs bites the Sharks like it did last season look for him to be in more games with Worcester this season but he could also get called up by any AHL team and that could very well happen too.
