Oliver Kapanen as 2nd center: Grant McCagg won’t give up

But McCagg isn’t letting up.

For him… Kapanen has what it takes to have such an important role because of his qualities as a two-way player.

McCagg doesn’t think Kapanen can become a player who produces at the famous point-per-game rate… but he does see him becoming a kind of Anthony Cirelli if he’s placed with more offensive players.

It’s the question of the 2nd center that has been the focus of attention for a few weeks now.

We don’t know if Kirby Dach will be able to fill that role…

We don’t know if Zachary Bolduc has the center skills to dominate in a role like this…

We know that the Alex Newhook experiment was never really that great…

That’s why training camp is going to be particularly interesting to watch this year. I get the impression that the coaches are going to give Dach a chance to shine, but that he’ll have to work hard to get his place in the middle of the 2nd line.

But if that doesn’t work… it’s going to get a little complicated for Martin St-Louis.
