So you can tank, but it still doesn't mean you just get a top center.

I'm of the opinion big skilled wingers who control the boards are more important than big centers, as long as a center has the puck skills and vision they can succeed in todays game and they do.
16 centers were top 30 in scoring last season, 9 of them were 6' and under.
As for Suzuki, he's actually a tad bigger than MacKinnon and he's my #1 center right now.
