Again though, I don't think it hurts to stock up on players who can play in bottom 6 forward positions if that's the best we can get for Cammalleri. If memory serves, both Burmistrov and Knight have played on the wings before...so there can be a bit of competition for their natural position.

I took your commef he can play RWnts as saying Burmi couldn't hold down an NHL roster spot. If we acquired him and moved him to the wing I would be more than happy with that if he is capable of playing RW
