<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LafayetteAvsFan</b></div><div>I agree 100% but I can't seem to make the #s fit. I'm about the biggest Toews fan out there. He's a top-12 D in the league, on just about any other team he's the 1D and comps (Spurgeon, Jones, Werenski, Nurse, Chabot) get $7.5M-$9.5M. Even if they trade Girard it will be hard to have any depth with Toews getting that $$ on top of Byram, Newhook, etc. unless the cap goes WAY up. I'm definitely not tied to Wennberg. He seems like the Compher-type who thrives here and I think JT's priced himself out unless he's willing to stay at the same salary. Dumba has lost a lot of value. I think he could be had fairly cheap. We'll see.</div></div>

No interest in paying Rodrigues and Wennberg or signing Dumba at all until the Avs take their best shot at Toews.

His best comp is Lindholm. Slightly different players who are exactly the same age. Something in the 7M range would be ideal. Playing with Makar has to be worth something!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oliver_wahlstrom</b></div><div>Wahlstrom has played center. Played pre-USMNTP, a little at USMNTP, not really at BC and then while in AHL. Not a natural center but can slot in</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dekes</b></div><div>I believe wahlstrom has played C at the junior and AHL level. He would have half a season to work with both krech and bergy where they could give him more knowledge on developing his play down the middle. I’m not to worried about FO% seems to be something that develops later on in players careers, if he could average mid to high 40s I’d be satisfied. One thing us B’s fans will have to come realize is it’s very rare that you have 2 centers as Dominant as bergy and krech were on the draw</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dekes</b></div><div>Would love to see a
Hall-Wahlstrom-Pasta line next year.
3 solid play drivers, hall will be living the good life setting up those 2 all day. Plus pasta takes most the pressure on that line so that should free up lots of space for wahlstrom to really utilize his shot</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dekes</b></div><div>Just an idea really I see a similar dach situation developing just like with a lot of the youth right now (laffy/kakko/zadina, etc) a lot of change of scenery’s in need and bruins need some more you guys and given wahlstrom can play C I would think Boston should be intrigued to atleast make an offer</div></div>

You did it. You talked yourself/let yourself be talked into the fantasy that Wahlstom can just waltz into a C position in Boston. This is the NHL. It's just not that easy.

You just don't "Slot in" to the C position in the NHL randomly. It took Bergeron/Krejci years to hone their craft and they came in as centers.

Just who would be the defensive presence on a Hall/Wahlstrom/Pastrnak line?

Kirby Dach is playing RW. If it was easy to "Slot in" at center he would already be doing it. DeBrusk, Pastrnak, our top prospect Lysell fill RW. Need a legitimate center prospect, especially if you are trading 2023 1st.
