If Nylander is competing with Khaira, then there's something wrong.....Nylander needs to win a spot on the top 2 lines----which is the problem with him....hopefully he proves many of us wrong and contributes offensively this year.

But um...dude is former highly touted (once said, way better what his brother) 8th overall drafted player....
should Hawks really fill a 4th line role with a player like such??? or with someone who has played
a similar role his entire career, you know, an actual 4th liner....

Sure, the 4th liner doesn't but... i think Khaira was signed for a reason.
In 4th as every line should play best players for that line.

Thanks for the input. From what I've seen, consistency is a problem.
No problem at all.
I still remember when Khaira had to step up his game as a younger prospect when he had to center Hall and Eberle a few times and looked really good doing it; I recall him hitting Hall with some beautiful long range saucer passes, from the D-zone after he intercepted pucks/broke up plays and they led to a goal and scoring chances. He absolutely dominated a few cycles and would set-up Eberle in the offensive zone and I believe Ebs scored on one of the set-ups.
I think you'll get the best Khaira we've seen since then.
