I would think they could pick up a center for the third/fourth line if pressed. I also wouldn't be crushed if they had to reach into the system and promote a player. Hrivik is unproven, but has really impressed in the AHL. I think Bennett stays where he is.

Seems to be balanced and give the young guys chances to succeed.
