I'm not necessarily dying to get a #1 center just yet, especially with Norris's late season surge. I may be more optimistic, but I think it's very likely he turns into a Patrice Bergeron/Sean Couturier type player, who can definitely anchor a first line with talented wingers like Stützle, Batherson and Tkachuk. I also think Pinto should be given prime minutes to see if he can make that same jump, and I'd be okay if that was our 1-2, with White on a 3rd line with Formenton and Brown/Dzingel/Paul.
i also hope they give JBD lots of time with Chabot - I agree if we can upgrade on Zaitsev, we should, but I want to see if he can do it first.
