Really when you look at the U-25 organizational depth...they do need centers...and they really should be trying to develop Zary as a center. If you move Zary / Pospisil from wing to center all of the sudden the overall organizational depth looks much more balanced.

Look at the organization longer term (Veterans with 2+ years remaining on their contract and U-25 players)

Center:

- Veterans: Backlund, Kadri
- U-26: Zary, Pospisil, Morton, Kerins, Misa, Lipinski

LW:

- Veterans: Huberdeau, Sharangovich
- U-25: Honzek, Pelletier, Stromgren, Basha, Suniev, Ciona

RW:

- Veterans: Coleman
- U-25: Coronato, Klapka, Gridin, Battaglia

LD:

- Veterans: Bean
- U-25: Bahl, Poirier, Grushnikov, Morin, Kuznetsov, Jurmo, Hurtig

RD:

- Veterans: Weegar, Andersson
- U-25: Pachal, Parekh, Brzustewicz, Mews

G:

- Veterans: Vladar, Cooley
- U-25: Wolf, Ignatjew, Sergeev, Zarubin,

The clear need for this organization is at center. They have a pretty strong base of LW, RW, and G in the U-25 range. Could probably use a young top 4 LH dman blue chip prospect but have a ton of depth at the position.

But really centers in that 18-23 age range have to be the focus for this organization in draft or trade. They have 5 1sts and 4 2nds over the next 3 years (plus assets from stuff like moving Kuzmenko, Mantha, etc) to solve this problem. But seeing if Zary and Pospisil can be NHL centers should be a priority for this organization at this point.
