That was two years ago and they proceeded to play him at center last year.
I admit that I had never heard this was misquoted - even if I'm fairly sure this was not
two years ago. This has morphed so far from my original point it borders on hilarity. Secondly, this is not the Pavel Zacha thread, and I never intended for it to morph into such. But, while we're here. Let's not pretend that Zacha was used exclusively at center last year, if I recall correctly he even started out last year on the wing. If Zacha was mistakenly labeled a winger by Hynes and/or Shero, maybe they were onto something given his underlying stats which leave a lot to be desired to build on this year, especially if he is to be given heavy duty minutes as 2C.
huh? tbc is multiple?
then put nico at 2c. losing zajac isn't the doom and gloom you think it is. so not sure what your saying. the kids will be just fine. relax
Sigh. Never did I say doom and gloom and nor did I say the kids wouldn't be "fine"
. They aren't going to die without Zajac. Likely this was a lost season anyway, and no Zajac wouldn't have changed that. My original point was that Zajac is the best defensive forward on the team, and there could be up to 2 rookie centers/Zacha underneath him. That is far from ideal and to me, really can't be challenged. Nico at 2C? Right, he must be in McDavid company to be penciled in there now since Zacha, as your linchpin, would cause issues for the team should he not be in the 2C role. If you want to continue this, feel free to PM me as I have no desire to continue a trivial pissing match on a message board for all else to sift through.
