Maybe he just needs to be attached to the 4th line and let him stay there....but pay him as such moving forward too.

The guy doesn't or at least hasn't produced, I won't argue that. The longer it goes on the more it seems likely it's what he is regardless of chances.
Not prepared to blame other players not playing well on him though. Tkachuk has been off for a couple of weeks, and is certainly missing Backlund more than Bennett is neutering him.
