My point was, they are more likley to be a top five drafting team this year and could replace Backstrom with any one of those centers. And in a likely hood that washington decides that a complete restructuring of their team is in order he could be available. Again I am inclined to agree with you on the franchise center issue but something tells me they're more likely to blow it up now than any other team. That much talent and zero success doesnt sit well anywhere.
