I don't know what the metrics say, but seemed like Drouin emerged as a better centre playing with Gallagher, after the Plekanec trade. Away from Galchenyuk and Patches. Domi can play the centre position. Faceoffs are his biggest weakness. I'd like to see a bit Drouin/Domi together, with Gallagher mucking. Drouin is too young to right off as a centre. Nathan Mackinnon, his former teammate, only had his breakthrough last season, with more time at the position.
Depth chart is probably
Drouin
Danault
Plekanec
Peca
DLR
Chaput
Froese
The biggest upgrade is at the bottom. Look forward to seeing Chaput in the Tricolore.
Peca gets a chance to be a regular grinder, carve out a career.
no, no he is not. He lacks EVERY attribute one looks for in a center. he is not now, never was and NEVER WILL BE a NHL Center. How this can STILL be debated eludes me.
drouin, not a center. And the comparison to Mackinnon is lol's.
