nothing to lose by KD and Richardson trying it this year, if he cant hack it put him back on the wing. Reichels shown hes got great hands in front of the net and he's played C his whole career. If he can improve his game around his own net theres no reason he cant be an NHL center

I highly doubt that if Korchinski makes the team, they play him on the first line with Jones. 1) Playing first line is trial by fire for a 19 year old. 2) Jones and Korchinski have similar games which will result in bad coverage in the hawks zone; both are puck moving offensive rush guys more then physical at home guys. 3) This is what makes Vlasic intriguing with Jones, and Korchinski intriguing with Murphy.

Regarding Reichel, no harm no foul trying him at center until Celebrini arrives next year
