That's exactly where I see him from the get go. KK's line is an offensive line regardless of its numerical order and Armia has no business on that line with his zero hockey sense and total lack of vision. They did not get Eric Staal to be a 4C and play with the checkers like Byron or Lehkonen.If Staal doesn't have the footspeed to play C anymore, or when he jumps up into the top 9, I could see him on KK's wing
Staal-KK-Toffoli
And Toffoli moving to his natural side is another plus. As other posters said above, it will be great for KK's development to have a guy like Staal on his line.
I expect one of Armia or Lehkonen to be moved.
