RHP has been playing the way he's played his whole career. He is what he is, high motor energy guy that is good on the forecheck with high enough hockey IQ to get himself open for the elite passers. He's a cog sure but one that won't rust right away.
I like him a lot for a third line roll.

I don't care about my third line center making $8m. You budget your centers. Since we don't have an elite one we are likely to only get one through draft which means cheap for three years.
My vision is if you can't find the elite you go with three very good second or bottom list first lines so Suzuki line isn't really the third. It's 1C. If, and its a big of, you can get 9 20+ goal scorers with a couple in the 40s on line 1A then you will compete and you will absorb injuries better. There won't be a big drop off. It's a plug and play system that other clubs have been using for success.
