I really like that Bracco for Honka deal...... two players with potential buried with their respective organizations. Great thought that addresses an organizational need.

Yah sure thing. Ennis is a center man. he takes .2 draws per game definitely a center man as well
Grigorenko 50gp 112 draws. That is 2 draws per game. Is that a center man? Or perhaps a winger that when the center gets kicked out of the draw he fills in. Mikael Granlund is also a center man who averages 2.4 draws per game, is that a centerman. Usually when players come out of junior, that is their title.

Well his time in the NHL was mainly spent at center. Looks like he split this last season between the wing and playing center. If he doesnt work at center can always switch with kerfoot.... Not a big deal.

NHL stats
217gp
1124 Face offs
46.7% Face off percentage
13:16 TOI per game.
4 Face offs per game in the NHL. That is not a lot. and he is terrible at them. Greorenko played 2 years at center on the 4th line in the NHL according to his face off report.

Kerfoot took 407 last year alone and was 46.9% So he is not good at faceoffs either

Actually 5.2 face offs per game.... About right for an 18-22yo. Kerfoots average last year was 5.8/game. He fits Toronto's style of play. He lead all forwards on CSKA in average ice time last year and they were one of if not the best team in KHL.... Bottom line he is worth the risk whether he plays center or wing. Or for that matter even if he doesnt make the team!!

Totally not debating that about Greorenko. In fact i did a team up with the Oilers getting Greorenko and Slepyshev (who the oilers own the right to) for our 3rd line. Greorenko led his team in Ice time and had that few draws. He is not a center that tells me and in fact will have more problems at center in the NHL than the KHL. But I think he would be a really good pick up, just not as a center. Better off with Kerfoot.
