Burrows - Santorelli - Kassian

Higgins - Matthias - Hansen

Booth - Richardson - Weise

Sauve+2nd?

That is not a 2nd line get real...We need a top center/winger. Santorelli and Richardson need to be our 3rd and 4th line centers

Enough of these 3rd 4th liners, when is Gillis goong to realize our need of a 2nd line goal scorer!!!

Exactly, too many grit/grinder players will only get you so far. Santorelli and Richardson are good for the 3rd and 4th lines, Mathias is just the same as them

How about an actual 2nd line player than more 3rd/4th line players?

Thank you. Was just going to post this exact thing.

This team hasn't been able to score goals when it counts for 3 seasons now, and we want another 3rd liner?

C'mon man!

25+ goals 50+ points is a top 6 forward but don't let stats ruin this opinion of yours.

Yes playing with the Sedin's. If he's not playing with the Sedins Burrows is 30-40 point player. That is not a top 6 forward it's a 3rd liner.

He's a versatile forward.

And yes, do you think that second line would be doing as good as it is right now if burrows wasn't there?

The second line has been good because Higgins is playing unreal right now and Santorelli has also been playing above expectations. Burrows has done nothing on the second line.

I`m not sure I`m sold on Matthias. Love the size but he's weak on draws and doesn't appear to have that much offensive upside. He would be fine for this year but he still has one year remaining at $1.75M and you kinda figure 3C will be Horvat's spot next year.

Who knows, maybe MG is looking at TOs situation and wants to stock pile centers?

I disagree. Burrows has been forchecking/battling like crazy. He was solely responsible for one of Higgin's goals last week when the puck was sliding towards the goal, Burrows tied up the dman and Higgins swooped in and roofed it.

He's snake bitten right now but the guy is CLUTCH when it counts.
