Prust proved that he can fill in if needed.
Briere will be a very good mentor for the young kids, I imagine that is a major reason why Bergevin signed him, especially since we're talking two years - he'll be gone by the time we're ready to make Cup runs.
However I cant' see a top 9 without Prust in it, he's a solid 3rd liner and one of the few muscle guys we have upfront.
