The only guys you listed that I wouldn't care to have over Chiasson in that list are Ryan Hartman & Melker Karlsson, who are about as good as Chiasson.

No argument from me. I'd even take Hartman over Chiasson. Even so my point was to highlight the fact that a lot of contenders have guys who really belong on the third or fourth line playing on the top line. Their fourth liner might be better than our fourth liner, but that's indicative of depth, not just Chiasson's own ability.
People are going to have to get used to a near-nobody making <$1.5mil playing on our top line.
