He had 56pts in 68 games last year, and is now 18pts in 56 games this year, playing wing on the second line for a bunch of it, but only 11 to 12 minutes a night. He was drafted as a centre, and this is the third year that he hasn't played at all at centre.
The knock against him is that he is tall, but with a slight frame. No defensive deficiencies, but not physical.
At the right price, put him in as a 3rd line centre between Klapka and Popisil, and just let him play. Really talented and 23 years old. Columbus is ruining him if he stays.
