It's pretty frustrating how inept this organization is at stocking high end center depth.
Monahan, Backlund, Ryan isn't going to cut it if we want to win a cup with this core IMO.
In a perfect world you have a two way C that's better than Monahan as the #1, which would bump them all down a notch, but I'd even settle for one that slots nicely in between Monahan and Backlund.
But nope, our highest ever draft pick had to fizzle out into a 3rd line grinding winger, and "the best pick from the 2012 draft" is barely even a 4th line C. You have Dube flat lining in the AHL, Kadri playing in Colorado and ROR winning a cup in St. Louis.
Always a day late and a dollar short for one reason or another.
