I think just as important as Carter and Nash meshing, is the third player on the line. I think that third player will need to be the perfect fit for the line to be an elite line. May it be Brassard (moved to wing), Vermette or even someone like Umberger (my choice). I think Umby would be good because he gets to the dirty areas and can feed the puck out to Nash and Carter. He can also plant himself in front of the net and play defense in own zone. Should be interesting to see what Arniel decides to do, but Carter and Nash will for sure start out together.

Comments on: Jeff Carter knows he’ll need to pass more on a line with Rick Nash, doesn’t expect big style changes
