If he keeps up the momentum he had in the last third of the regular season (21pts in his last 34 games), maybe. Assuming we bring a #2C in, there is probably going to be a lot of mixing and matching on the wings for every line to find the best combination.
I like how receptive he is to Sutter's coaching, he spoke about how much Sutter did to improve his game back in March. Sutter also had some praise for him too.
Of course this is assuming he is not in trouble with the Hockey Canada stuff, still have to wait and see about that.
