That’s what makes Elias Lindholm special, he can play any position on the team and make that line better. If Jack Eichel is here, I’m moving Lindholm to wing to help supplement the Eichel line. If Lindholm can do the dirty work and get Eichel into more prime scoring areas, then absolutely.

Sutter is already playing Backlund like the #1 center right now anyway, so sticking him at the #2 spot seems about right.
