As Kadri slows downc he could become the 3rd line centre while Zary and Cozens become the top 2 centres.

Why i have been advocating for using some of our wing depth to get a center and nothing could help the team more if you are trying for the playoffs.
We currently have huby, coleman, sharbait locked up long term. 3 of 8 spots. Scoronato is a shoe for a long term contract thats four. Pospisil, is a regular and it looks like Pelts is making a case as at least a good bottom six you get the point we have a pile if wingers.
Detract a winger not much impact, add a center thats anything close to top six huge difference.
Kadri mystery top six Zary Backs is pretty good center depth.
