I could be wrong in my Babs analysis of how many light weight highly skilled guys he wants on the team. And maybe the nhl will change again to an even higher skill league. Our centres are all highly skilled but all 3 have 2 way 200 foot games.
What i was referring to was Nylander Marner and Bracco who do not have 2 way 200 foot games. Their skill levels are all slightly different but similar. Nylander is best skater of 3 with best shot. Marner has the most complete game of 3 and best playmaker. Bracco has the best hands of the 3 and his passes are unreal (if you thought marner could pass then you will be excited to see a guy at the next level). Bracco will also take more risks going to the net. He does have more risk of getting knocked out due to his size.
I still feel like Babs will only play 2 of those guys and if Nylander fits in Leafs Dubas cap then i do believe it will be him. Under that scenario I think Bracco gets moved for a top end defenceman but it will take more time. But there is a limited chance Nylander just does not fit the cap and if so then there is a backup plan in place.
Kappy and AJ are 2 way 200 foot players but with a lot less skill than 3 above. They will never replace each other.
