I think the idea here is that if you acquire a legitimate elite player, he will lift all boats- especially that of Huberdeau perhaps and he might return to being a 80-90 point player as well.
Having Marner + Huberdeau leading the offence with Parekh/Weegar on the back end and Wolf in net... I mean it could work. The big problem here is that the Center spot is still sorely lacking unless Frost really breaks out.

The thing with Marner is he is a winger that could easily be moved to centre. His entire game is already more suited to centre than wing, you would just need to work on his faceoffs. I believe that would be the plan if they could sign Marner is to play him down the middle.
