this would be a huge risk for STL losing a great player but murray could be there missing link.

I think it's pretty obvious that Schwartz is the missing link. "The club was averaging 3.3 goals per game in 30 games with Schwartz this season and 2.0 goals per game in 16 games without him."

Bold, but Habs don't want/need Hagelin and Rust and a second aren't enough to get me to give up Danault, especially with so few true centermen on the roster/in the system.

that kinda where pit is at. not alot of center depth. guentzel is not a center but is being asked to play it because he played some in college.

He didn’t just play some center in college. He is a center. That’s his natural position. They made him move to wing because he would move up faster as a wing.
