How about option 2 combined with option 3. Sign him with expectations he will be one of 3 top line centers. If Suzuki and KK both take off, trade him. If either one of the 2 youngsters stumble, you have someone to fill top 6 role short term. Really hope Montreal roles their top 3 lines fairly evenly, which means it really doesn't matter whether he is considered 1C, 2C, or 3C. He gets extra minutes on the PK, to balance out lost minutes from not playing the PP. And he will start a lot of shifts because he will be leaned on for defensive zone face offs.
