Little worried about Petersson being offer sheeted.

Nobody offer sheets anybody. Sure Aho got offer sheeted but you have to remember that Carolina's owner, Tom Dundon, is notoriously "cheap" and tries to lowball everyone. Aho basically used Montreal's offer to get the money he was really seeking.
If the offer sheet system wasn't so broken, teams would be trying to cripple the Lightning by offer sheeting guys like Erik Cernak (which the Canucks should've done), Brayden Point, and Mikhail Serguchev every year.
The Aquilini's had one cheap year in the 15 years they've been owners and that was last year. They'll probably get a deal done before free agency opens.
No need to sweat it.

I dunno. Our cap situation still isn't good, and I think other GMs realize this and might try to take advantage. While I have no doubt we'd match, it could end up screwing us and we might have to sell off something we don't want to sell off for a discount in exchange for some cap space. Kinda seems like a perfect storm of $&!#.
