You know, since all our centers forgot how to take faceoffs anyways, JVR and Kulemin really could stand a chance to do quite well as centers.

Maybe we could put a d-man up there.

Like ka-Gardiner.

They will make a trade or call up. JVR or Kuli are not going to be centers. That's absurd.

Nonis can't be desperate and overpay for a centre, I'd rather ride JVR/Kuli as a centre for a few weeks rather than make a trade that doesn't make sense for us, and only making it because we're desperate for a centre.

So what's the game plan, trading / signing ufa / bringing up Zigomanis?

Does he still play for the Marlies?

Why is it absurd?

Kulemin played center for Russia. JVR played it prior to being drafted.

Both are defensively solid players, and could take the additional responsibilities of being centers.

i dont get the logic.. move a winger into the centre spot and bring up someone to play wing?

you just create two weak spots with guys in unfamiliar roles instead of just one.

bring up mckegg.. put him on the second line between clarkson and lupul so that he doesnt have to focus on defensive assignments as much and keep the wingers where they play the strongest.. on the wing.

i guess if he told Burke to trade him or he quits, then Burke might as well let someone else take the hit

so you are banking on kuli being effective even without superstar offensive wingers?

or JVRs experience in college?

you sir are a gambler.
