I just wanted to see what you guys think as a discussion.
As for my opinion, I actually do want to see some prospects given the chance to be a center at the NHL level. I think that Dube, Ruzicka, and Zary have potential to develop into a top 6 center. Right now I don't know how that would work, but I'm not too worried about it either because I think Lindholm can always play #1RW as well.

The Flames have no Cs pushing for top 9 at the moment. Yes, Zary is there, but he is nowhere near bumping any of those guys.
The way I look at it is that Lindholm, Kadri, Backlund is a pretty strong set of Cs for the next 3 years. After that? We can deal with it then.
