Babcock hasn't moved @AM34 to the wing because "I think he's that good," in that he's already figuring out how to be great where he is"In our situation, we need him to be a dominant, dominant center for us. We think he's going to be by Christmastime. We think he's a very good player already, but we think he can be lights out with and without the puck. He takes a lot of pride [in his game]."

What have you seen from Auston in terms of his play away from the puck defensively?
Mike Babcock: I think he?s been good. I thought last game was one of his best games to tell you the truth. I thought him, Hyman and Brown were real good. Played most of the game against Malkin. Malkin wasn?t in many of the chances. They had a lot of heavy shifts and good opportunities. He did a real good job there.

Marner's not doing so bad either of course.

LuncheonMeat said:His shooting percentage is currently sitting around 9.5%, but I would think if you took that first game away he might be sitting at about half that. He's bound to break out here eventually. Right????

- Despite generating plenty of chances, Auston Matthews has now gone nine straight games without a goal, picking up just a pair of assists in that stretch. "It's very frustrating," the 19-year-old centre admitted after Monday's workout. "I'm a player who wants to score, obviously, so when that stuff's not happening you definitely get a little frustrated, but you just got to stick with. I've been getting a lot of chances. Just want to stay positive and keep having fun out here."

To be fair, he is:
