Although I am not sold that Pageau will be a full-time NHLer next season, I seem to be in the minority there. Many people have put him in the top 6 on their depth charts, but I feel that he is more suited to a 4th line role where he can check and use his speed to chip in here and there. I am not sure a consistent offensive role will be his in the NHL, but I have been wrong before.
