Do we even need a 3C? I’m very comfortable with McCann in that role.

Jake-Sid-Rust
____-Malkin-Kap
Zucker-McCann-Erod
ZAR-Bluegar-Tanev

I think the biggest addition would be for a guy to play with malkin. I don’t wanna break up the McCann line.

So was kessel in 2016. If we can run 3 legit scoring lines, and a shutdown fourth line, that would be so reminiscent of the 2016 cup.

What happened to McCann last year.....
when we had him in Top 6 at LW & at Center all year, then when we got healthy, we made him a Defensive 3rd line Center.... He turned into a mess
