Agreed. It would be like tossing A-Cup on the first line with Koivu (providing we don't sign a top centre), although I think there would be a lot more pressure on a defensemen than a forward.
Errm, not quite. They won't have huge-ass shoulders and it'll look like they actually have necks. Then of course there's cosmetic differences like having a logo on the front instead of numbers.
So would I, but at the rate the cap (and thus salaries) are rising, his agent would have to be pretty stupid to lock into that sort of deal.
By the way, looks like the Isles are getting an incredible deal for Dippy.
