You need a finisher in that spot....there is one in house already. One who also kills penalties and isnt 35 years old.
I like Kessel as a potential fit with Kadri and Mangiapane on the second line. He and Kadri have some chemistry and it allows Coleman to stick with Backlund on the third line. I like how the roster slots with Kessel in the mix

Huberdeau-Lindholm-Toffoli
Mangiapane-Kadri-Kessel
Dube-Backlund-Coleman
Lucic-Rooney-Lewis
Ruzicka

Hanifin-Andersson
Weegar-Tanev
Zadorov-Kylington
Mackey

Markstrom
Vladar

Pelletier marinates for one more year (also first call up for injury) he definitely is on the roster next year when the cap crunch hits with Huberdeau and Weegar’s raises kick in.
