I personally would like to see the top two lines next year to be:
Guchi-Koivu-Heatley
Latendresse-Granlund-Parise
all contingent on that Parise signing of course.
Putting Clutterbuck and Zucker on a line could spark some energy into the line up as well. It seems like there is going to be a lot of competition next year with the new guys coming to camp and vets trying to keep their spots.
Anyone know if he can he comfortably play on the right side? Did he do it much here a couple years ago, or was Havlat on the right side? I only ask because I fully expect Granlund to start on the wing which means there aren't any open spots on the left side in the top 6. If he can move over to RW, that would open up a lot of options.
Why do people keep assuming he's gonna be a top goal scorer when there's no real record to back that up?! He had one good year......ONE GOOD YEAR! I repeat, ONE GOOD YEAR! He was healthy in Montreal, so where were those 20-30 goal seasons? There is no proof that shows he will without a doubt be a 30 goal scorer.....or the top goal scorer on this team.
My gosh.....if we're going to go off of one good year, then a healthy Heatley can score 40 goals for us. Oh wait........
It's painful to read this sort of argument presented. It's really sad that the anti-Latendresse crowd has to stoop this low.
It's been established repeatedly why this is a bad argument, why it's inaccurate, and why it shouldn't be used. Please just stop.

Agreed. In my opinion Lats when he's healthy will score 30 goals and there's not a damn thing anyone can say that will make me change my mind. He's a big strong guy who isn't afraid to use his body, has a good shot, and actually likes it here. I'm not sure what else we can ask for other than for him to stay healthy.
What's the soonest date we could qualify him by? Well now that I think about it, we already re-signed Stoner so I suppose GMCF could sign him right now if he wanted to.
