As for Klein being a "solid #3", I strongly disagree. He is a #3 out of default and it's a major area of concern. He has been burned in the playoffs when we're having to face teams that have 2 legit scoring lines, such as Vancouver and Chicago. We might as well add Detroit and SJ as teams with two legit scoring lines.

Never heard anyone say he's a "solid #3." I agree that he is the #3 by default and is wrongly used in that role, but he is a solid #4 IMO. He just can't be relied on to anchor the 2nd pairing. He is more of a complementary player and needs to be playing with someone better than him, not worse.
