I think this harms their transition and scoring ability and opens the door for CBJ to continue to try and exploit inefficient line/player changes.
I don't disagree, but it also provides positives. Second center on the ice if one gets thrown out, defensively responsible player on the ice if the faceoff is lost, and most importantly a right handed center for the draws to Holtby's right. It's certainly a Trotz risk-averse move, just as is moving Vrana down to the fourth where his defensive liabilities are less likely to be exploited.
