    I prefer Kunin to JEE, but I dont think either guy will become "the guy" in Minny. I think that is still TBD after they make more moves.

    You are probably right, but it will interesting to see as first line centres don't grow on trees

    True, and neither to 1-2Dmen, and thats what they are dangling with Dumba to get a 1C, much like the Johansen/Jones trade.

    Agree w/others.
    Kunin over JEE. But I don't see either of these guys popping.
    Lack of bonafide C1 and/or C2 could hurt Fiala production.
    I do think MarJo, even at age 29, could have a career year at touch 60pts for first time in career if he gets 18+min/TOI and PP1 time.
    For me, he's always been a solidly deceptive player (a la David Perron - who took some time to find his groove, had his first 60+pt season at age 29/30).

    if you used that line in offensive situations only Nylander be just fine i think...but yeah he is not your stud C you can relay on in all situations.

    Another name that comes to mind that could work but is less offensively talented is Trocheck. However im not sure he is available and if he is i dont think trading D to Caroline would do it...

    I wonder if Roslovic would be a fit as Winnipeg is in dire need of a defensman?

    Do you see Roslovic as a top six center? Winnipeg is looking for top six centers themselves and Roslovic couldn't get the job done for them. Not sure he'd be a main piece in a Dumba trade but who knows.

    Neither JEK or Kunin is a top line center in my opinion. At best 2C, but even that is a stretch for either at this point. They will bring someone in, either by trading Dumba and/or buying out Dubnyk.

    I hear Mik Granlund is available. He was great at C in Minny.

    Maybe Dylan Strome? I can see him as a top center, but he's stuck behind Toews and Kirby now
    31 TEAMS keep all multi-cat (lot of them) dynasty
    Offensive stats : Goals, Assist , PPP, PPTOI, SOG...
    Defensive stats : PKTOI, BLKS, TakeAway, Giveaway...
