Here's the PPG this season for all our wingers and Kapanen:
Toffoli 0.86
Huberdeau 0.70
Dube 0.63
Mangiapane 0.54
Ruzicka 0.49
Coleman 0.47
Kapanen 0.47
Pelletier 0.46
Duehr 0.40

Now Kapanen could turn into a 50pt winger, but so could Pelletier, or Ruzicka at some point... The question is who gets the opportunity, or who do you move out?
I agree with you, except I don't think Sutter shares our positive opinion when it comes to Ruzicka. Not sure what's going to happen with him.
