Hey,
I\'m of the opinion that Eaves will be the best of that bunch.
He\'s looked more so comfortable on the top line in Ott.. and if they don\'t trade Gerber (which if anything would be closer to mid-season/trade deadline) and get a forward for that line, then Eaves has an excellent chance at staying there.
Malone is going to be doing real well, but is still on the third line.. albeit with Staal.
and then Hossa, great dark horse, still not really sold on him myself, but others really seem to like him if he can stick on that first line with Gomez and Jagr... i just wonder how long it\'ll be until they put straka back up on the first line though as he also had great chemistry with Jagr and Nylander last year. (if i remember correctly)
