I think you are a bit harsh on Pouliot's defensive play. The guy needs coaching to fill the role properly, that is true. But so many of his assets are more suited for centering a line.
And with his easy stride, backchecking should not be a stretch.
Clowe - Gomez - Gionta
Cammalleri - Pouliot - Armstrong
Pacioretty - Moore - Moen
Lapierre - Pyatt - White
Metro/Darche
Would make a hard roster to play against.
