I know that. TheFlamingC said " Maybe, Pacioretty could be on a steep decline by tournament time " and I replied with Kreider might as well+Lafreniere could take his top6 LW spot so if he ends up playing on the 3rd line with the Rangers, he'll likely regress.

He's 27 and his stats are slipping. I don't think he's going to be there.
Scored 99 points and had an off year... slipping. When Gretzky was 26, he dropped nearly 40 points in production. Next year he jumped back up and added 20 points with a completely new, much weaker team. I get Gretzky is a different species but off years happen
I think they will figure a way to get Krug in their Top 6. Not sure who you would take out, but I think Krug will get a spot...good problem to have if you're Team USA.
