Make space!


Play Backlund as a winger or 4th C if you have too, his career is almost over.

Zary has the skillset to be a top 6 center, we need to give him the opportunity to realize it.


There's a reason this organization has trouble finding top 6 centers and it's because we dont develop them properly. The one that we have developed in recent history, Monahan, was given lots of opportunity because there was simply no other option. And what do you know he actually turned out.
I agree. It seems like the best move is to make Backlund the 4th line center - and a good one at that. There would be no problem if a team decided to match up their top lines against a fourth line with Backlund there. Plus he would still get significant minutes on the penalty kill.

Would love to see Zary and Coronato together.
