I'm still holding out hope Henriksson can play top 9 hockey at center with talented wingers which shouldn't be an issue with the big club in 2-3 years. Hoping for positive progression from him this year.

Then he is no good to us anymore lol. Does that mean he now projects as a winger now or do you think he can transition back to center as he matures?
I think he could definitely do it. He would have been centering Holtz and Raymond in the WJC last season if not for COVID. You look at someone like Barron, he was a C that Cornell moved to wing, and now three years later the Rangers moved him back to C (technically he moved back to C for most of last season in Hartford). I think his offensive skills play well at center, though I'm not sure his size and relative lack of footspeed will hold him back.
 
Game sheet shows Lindbum as the backup for the fourth time in five games. We'll see, they're not always right.

Looks like Leevi Aaltonen is out of the lineup again. I haven't heard of an injury, so it may just be a scratch.

Henriksson has played center for every tournament and game I believe with the Rangers, be that Traverse City, prospects game or NHL game correct? I think that's a clear indication as to where the team sees him developing into. In the SEL, it may just be more about finding him minutes

Chmelař with an assist. He has picked it up a bit and now has 6 points on 11 games, but you'd really like to see him doing better than that given the quality of the league. Hopefully he can pick it up.

There's a logjam at C in Frölunda. There are at least eight players who could play C easily. I think Kalle will have no problems playing there in the future, last season he played in the middle some of the last games of the season and those were his best.
