I like it. The team doesn't have much center depth, much less a center with good size and can win faceoffs. If nothing else, he's an insurance policy against a serious injury to a center.
Speaking of which, Barkov went down in the 1st period with an upper body injury (no major contact) and didn't return to the game. There's been no update and the team is being very quiet about things. Considering how important Barkov is to the Panthers, that is NOT good news.
