Habs fans on this forum have been arguing for quite some time about this. Some think that his EV strength performance warrants him the title as a top6 Center. I on the other hand feel that 40 points over a 82 game season is rather low to be a top6 Center. I also feel strongly that top6 Centers should have success on the powerplay.
I have a bunch of opinions about first line centers and top6 centers, where the NHL maybe has 15-20 #1 centers and something like 35-45 top6 centers in the NHL right now. In the end the numbers all come back to around 60 or so top6 centers.
So what do you all think?
