Yet if we somehow landed a star center in the summer, we would suddenly be exceptionally strong in the position running Monahan at #2, Backlund at #3 and Ryan at #4. We have good centers who play adequately in their current roles in stretches, but a bonafide #1 pushing those guys down just one line each would do wonders for us, I feel.
