Speculation: 2024-25 Roster thread

[Hockey Duckie]

Hypothetically if we did get Celebrini, do you really think we'd play him at wing and not center?

If Celebrini is going to the NHL next season, then yes, Celebrini is going to the wing. He doesn't turn 18 until June 13th. Macklin can be eased in at wing to get used to the speed and physicality.

There could be a slight possibility of swapping Celebrini with Zegras b/c Celebrini's FO stat in college was 60% (317 wins over 529 attempts).

But I'd prefer to put Celebrini on wing first and then the possibility of moving to center if Z is still struggling at the faceoff dot.
