But if you look at the list, which of those guys could be realistically used to acquire a strong centre prospect.
Parekh - yes. But they aren't doing that.
Poirier? Nope. Injuries and still hasn't established his readiness.
Mews? Tons of upside. Probably worth now when drafted, but questions remain about if he is an NHL dman.
Bru? Similarly value is probably a little from when he was traded. But is he going to net you a good centre prospect? Doubtful
Morin? Doubtful.
Right now it is a position of potential strength. But that potential hasn't yet been realized.
