I think he has top 6 upside in the way Dupuis is a top 6 player. He could be good enough to fill in a top 6 spot during injuries or as a third wheel on a budget, but he really shouldn't be a full time top 6er.

Id agree with this.... I don't think the kid will be all star material by any means, but a scoring touch on the third line is woefully missing... should have been duper... may be Menga

Megna and Duper together would be a fun 3rd line.


Yup. This is what I've been saying for most of the season. If we sign/trade for a winger to take the top line RW spot, or when an internal player (Bennett, Archibald, etc.) can supplant Dupuis, that a line of Dupuis (back on LW) with Sutter and Megna would be one of the very best 3rd lines in the league; and finally bring us a line that could have the type of identity, impact on the game and offensive production that we had with the Cooke-Staal-Kennedy line.
