Don't see Johnston being on the 3rd line in 2 years. He's not on the 3rd line now. Johnston is likely your top line center when Pavelski leaves. They'll try out Robertson on the right side, have Hintz on the left, and put Johnston between them. You may even see him take the 1RW spot; he's been playing a good amount of RW this year. Also wouldn't be shocked to see Stankoven get put on one of the wings, given how good Benn has been playing at Center.

I think I’d definitely do this if I’m Pittsburgh. Be a good way to get some younger legs and a project type of guy to take on as well.

Why exactly does Dallas need a young goalie? Is Jake Oettinger going somewhere. If its for a backup, there are many better options out there than Primeau
