only other option IMO was Carrier, he has turned his game around

Again he was 19 to start the season and in his 1st pro year. I think the incident where he had his head bounced off the ice a few times scared him a tad. He's gotten over it and seems to have righted that ship. He has as many points as Cat.

Kid looked great last night. Not NHL great, but I'm excited for his future.

Cat is another career AHLer IMO.

aside from palat and shaw

that draft class sucked after the second rd

I still say that if Grigorenko is to make his mark in Buffalo it will be at rw.

With so many centers , your right , some will have to move to the wing . Not a bad option to have . Beats the time when we had NO centers.

How dare you insult Derek Roy, he's Tank MVP.

Should we move Mceichal to the wing then ?

No you need to trade for a winger that's like playing big joe on wing or ryan getzlaf at wing it just does not work

If he could ever get his skating up to snuff, he has the makings and skill of a solid top line rwer IMO.

Plenty of other teams have had success moving guys from center to wing. You just have to look and see which of them plays a game that would be suited in either place. It's not out of the realm of possibility to move guys around like that and still be successful.

3 centers on 1 line. Why not? Would be fun

I agree. I think his style game is best suited as a center. He's a playmaker. He needs wingers that can finish.

Nope he was the best shut down center in world jr
