I think Eller comes close to replacing Danault's defense, although not quite his offense. If Dvorak and Suzuki keep improving on offense, and Eller leads the checking line and penalty kill, that could put Montreal's forwards back where they were last year.
I doubt anything happens until Backstrom and Dowd are back in the Caps' lineup. Current center depth in Washington is Kuznetsov, Eller, rookies. Not sure if the other centers will be back in one week or several.
