Uh...okay?
I never said he was anything more than a 4th liner, I said it was more likely that the team traded Pearson to put ZAR in the top-9 than for them to replace ZAR in the lineup with someone from WBS. My original post was "I think a ZAR-Blueger-Blandisi 4th line next year could be very effective".
I'm like 99% sure you're just arguing this just to argue it, so I'm not going to bother going forward. Me saying "I like the idea of a ZAR-Blueger-Blandisi 4th line" shouldn't warrant an argument against that.
That would be a nice 4th line next year. Definitely worth a look. We have almost all our players back so very little needs to be added next year.

That’s a pretty good start to next summer only needing to add one spot which I think might be fixed in a few weeks. Rutherford has really stabilized this team. How many teams have this much back next season? We could very easily have all spots filled for next year if we make a Center trade like many think we will. Too many productive defenseman though. I see someone getting traded either by the deadline or by the end of the summer.
