But you still need a good team around said #1 center. We’re still talking about a 23 man roster here. Even McDavid and Draisaitl couldn’t do it by themselves. All this team is missing at this very moment is a true elite #1 center. They have 1 scoring line, 1 shutdown line, a decent 4th line.

They just need a major upgrade up the middle, another consistent scoring threat that can contribute when the top scoring line is shut down and vice versa. Jack Eichel can drive his own line and make average wingers better. But if we trade our most important pieces and all that leaves us with is an injury prone #1 center, then we’ll just be Buffalo West. That’s not a solution in my opinion either.
