Can we get a 1C?

With three top 5 picks, we've used two on wingers and one on a D. Ideally we would have drafted a center by now who could supplant Suzuki... or at least be a Suzuki equivalent.

Demidov and Slaf should eventually push Caufield down as a secondary option which really helps on the wings.

Hagens, Frondell, Misa, McQueen and Ryabkin are some C options if we're going to suck again this year. Not sure which of them project more as NHL wingers than centers though.

We didn't really get a chance at one at the draft , I prefer Slaf over Cooley so you can't blame them for that one , not sure why the fanbase thought 3 top picks was enough , teams usually need more than that at least a few top 10s sprinkled in there

We have Hage in the system who can really develop into something for the top 6, he has the talent. But yeah, ideally we should need another who could take the 1C spot.
