It's a 4-way race between Mittelstadt, Krebs, Thompson and Cozens for two top-6 center spots. At least one, and probably two, become wingers long-term

Who ends up where is very much up for grabs. Ironically I'd give Thompson the highest odds to end up as a center long-term of the 4

Oh interesting, so more of a stable of solid options than one standout star (though I guess its' super early in their careers so who know). Nice that Mittlestadt and Thompson turned things around. Last I had paid attention it wasn't looking too great for either

honest question...why the interest?

Just kinda popped into my head. I used to work near near the lake so the Buffalo stations would come across the water. Moved away from the lake 2 years ago so it's all just Toronto stations now

Mittelstadt looked great under Donny meatballs last season with 17 points in 22 games to end the season. He has had a lost season thus far due to injury. Tage is new to the center game but his ranginess is translating thus far as well. Some growing pains but he looks like a bonafide 3C option with 2C upside to me.

Tage is progressing nicely at C, just needs to pass every once in awhile

He also still has the infuriating tendency to toe-drag dangle when he should shoot, like on Monday when Skinner fed him with that beautiful no-look pass to the slot on the rush, and rather than shoot, Tage curled and dragged.

Draft Savoie, Wright, or Cooley and then Tage goes back to Wing.

They're going to regret that Hamilton contract when they're finally good enough to make the playoffs.
