how have the 3 swedes been playing so far? (tom, granberg, loov)
Sid, Stamkos, Bergeron, Giroux ... all top centremen, none over 6 ft.

Bergeron is listed at 6'2".
The issue is that you need a good 4 group of centers, especially a consistent 2nd liner in Krejci, Malkin, Carter, etc
Sid and Stamkos are both very thick and are basically 6 foot and 200 lbs each. Definitely big enough to handle the rigors of being a first line centre.
People are still trying to say Nylander is too small?
lmao

Cap reasons I assume. Send em down for the All Star break.
Should be a hell of a Marlies line up over the all star break.
Leivo - Nylander - Brown
Abbott - McKegg - Ashton
Kozun - Carrick - Frattin
Devane - Rupert - Biggs
Percy - Granberg
Loov - Mikkelson
Finn - Marshall
Nylander likely on the wing to start.
With Frattin and Leivo going back do you think it pushes Nylander into the middle? Marlies are short at C.

I see Nylander getting to centre by the 3rd period...
I don't. I think he'll be on the wing for at least the week-end.
Seems like a waste with Rupert being centre between Leivo and Brown, and having Biggs who isn't even a C, being the C on the 4th line.

Rupert's been one of their better players though. I'm guessing they don't feel right about bumping him down considering how well he's played for them.
