The guy finally starts playing with confidence and you want to move him asap to the first line ?

Keep him where he is currently at.

I still think it is good to see that Kassian has made very noticeable improvements in the first half of the season. Hell, only a few weeks ago Torts said Kass won't play on the top line until he can play better defence. In this game alone we saw Kass give the puck up and haul ass to get back and break up the play going the other way.

Pretty sure it's a good thing Torts is treating Kass the way he is. The Twins didn't start as 1st liners, neither did Bure or Linden or Naslund or many other greats in the uniform.

Not comparing Kassian to any of them but development never stops even at the pro level

Hansen hasn't done much better on the 1st line.

It's worth a try.

Sedins aren't known as the fastest player, Hansen gets back asap when the play goes the other way. Kassian is sluggish defensively and that's why him on a line with Richardson and Booth works well.
