FWIW Sutter really values faceoff ability. Monahan and Lindholm are head and shoulders better then the rest of the team. Backlund is a hair under 50%, which I suppose ain't bad when you consider he routinely faces off against the best centres. Ruzicka is at 48% which is acceptable for a rookie. Dube is 44% which is bad, and won't get him a full time centre spot with Sutter unless he improves.
