Assuming Martone goes to college, is Bump likely to play on the 3rd line in place of Foerster while he is on the IL? I must be missing one of the top 6 — Couts, Konecny, Tippett, Zegras, Michkov and ??? Who is number 6? Seems like they are missing a 2nd line winger; maybe Foerster moves up to fill it when he returns but if he is out to start the season, it seems like they have a big hole on the 2nd line. And after Dvorak and Hathaway on the 4th line, there is a big opportunity for someone to earn that spot and relegate Deslaurier to a healthy scratch.
You overlooked Cates. Consider this : he is a natural winger, was switched to play center by Torts. Also Zegras who is a natural center but has said he's willing to play winger if it helps the offense. Personally, I think it's going to be Luchenko, him going back to the Guelph OHL team again won't help in his development. And who wouldn't want Martone for 1 of those 8 / 9 game experiments?
I absolutely love the Frost Farbee trade!
