This just isn't true. Tavares didn't play this spot in the latter years of being with the Islanders but he's certainly played this role more than a few years overall with the Islanders. Also watch his goal highlights too, he scores so much from that area.
So he takes JVRs former spot? Is he Pavelski-good at tipping in shots? Don't mind him upfront, but you take a lot of abuse and tend to get hit with the puck a helluva lot more which isn't the safest place with one of our best players.
