Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!
Listen, I'm not saying it wouldn't be valuable to have two great centre prospects in the organization, it would.
I'm just cognizant of the experience we had with Naz where we bounced him from centre to wing to centre to wing and I worry about making the perfect the enemy of the good.
Right now, his performance as a left winger with the Marlies has made him unquestionably a top five hockey prospect in the world. If William Nylander can be the same calibre of player offensively at centre as he has proven to be as a left winger than I'm all for it.
I want him playing where he's most effective, period.
you just waxed poetic about how much more important C was than W, and then you ask this?
I think you might be BSing us. I think you just have size bias.
