For me it's a bit of a yes and no question.
Yes because i think he provides a bit of everything that we need from our remaining forwards: A bit of scoring a bit of toughness and size.
But as a possible 3rd line center a think we need an out and out tuff guy to give Kruse (if we get him) some support in the old fisticuffs department as it doesn't look as though we're going to replace Bouts
and ali in that area.
not only is he a more than decent player, he'd be somebody who could at last win us a few face-offs.
I remember a game last year against Bracknell when during the first period I think we won 1 out of about 20 face-offs (mainly thanks to Dan Ceman). It's an important part of the game and can be a major factor in winning or losing.
