What makes you think that?
He's a big advocate of trading Despres. Lots of weirdos round these parts.

What Bobby Mac said earlier in the season is that the pens could leave Malkin on the wing[/B] and trade for a 3rd line center rather then trading for a top 6 winger.

Let's hope Bobby Mac had a rare miss there, because that would be amazingly stupid.
I hope Harrington remains with Letang, he earned it. He should be glued to Tanger until Maatta comes back. Won't happen but it should, IMO.
With Maatta returning, Despres will go back to being a bottom pairing guy =(
Nope
Letang-Martin
Despres-Scuderi/Ehrhoff
Ehrhoff/Scuderi-Maatta
Something like that I would guess.

maybe even beyond. Keep him there til Maatta comes back, if that pair continues to play at a high level, then you can feel even more at east moving Martin and Scuderi
I have no problem with Malkin playing wing, as it's more taxing to play pivot. It's more about the fact that Malkin and Sutter just have no chemistry together.
There really isn't anyone with any skill left to play with Malkin now that Comeau is down, so Sutter makes sense in a vacuum.
Absolutely. Those two have looked fantastic together.
Devil's Advocate:
I don't like Malkin on the wing either, but I wonder if this move is as much about seeing how the team would fare if Sutter were moved for a winger and Goc became our 3C.

We've seen morning skates like this before and then everything changes. We have to give MJ the benefit of the doubt right now, guys.
That's the thing, not only are you moving one of the best centers in the league to wing your also killing your 3rd line by moving Sutter to the 2nd line, Goc has shown hes pretty much useless as far as creating any type of offense on that 3rd line.
