Doesn't look like a "thin" top 6 to me

And in the event of an injury, who steps in? Sullivan missed a lot of games last year and is still rehabbing his injury. This organization had the luxury Radulov, Hartnell, and Upshall to fill in the top 2 lines when injuries occured. Now they have Gelinas. That is a significant drop off from last year.
Hornqvist, O'Reilly, and Peverly are probably the top call ups from the minors. I don't think anybody can argue that these are not Top Prospects. Quite frankly, it could be the worst crop of prospect in the league at the forward position.
