<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Disagree with your ratings. More like a scale of 1 to 5. 3 being average and that's about where Gus was at the end of the season, maybe 2.5.

A 1st liner doesn't have to be a defensive d guy. Karlsson is a good example; he's not much more then a 3 defensively BUT he's a 5 offensively.

It's about pairing guys correctly. Why two slow footed defensive shutdown guys should not be on the 1st line together either. Ideally you have a stay at home guy paired with a offensive D guy to transition the zone and play up in the O zone. Same thing with the way Bouchard and Boqvist were paired with the Knights. Boqvist is a nightmare on D....way worse then Gus, but paired correctly he was a breakout talent and people are calling him the next Karlsson.</div></div>

This is an awful argument. Please go to hockeyviz.com. Go to Chicago and see who Gus player next to most of the season. Answer is Keith. Keith has become a stable stay at home dmen. While you bring a great argument, Gus played with stable d most of the year. I think a Gus-Murphy pairing is optimal on many fronts. But what do I know. What do we know. Lol
