While GM Don Sweeney is busy mopping up the Jeremy Swayman mess or making it worse, depending on who you talk to, NHL Insiders are busy.

As you can see the NHL has released a list of some of the Top Centers in the league, and despite acquiring Elias Lindholm he hasn't been made a part of the list.

While he's one of the best acquisitions this off-season, it's arguable if he's a 1C as his production hasn't matched any of the players listed here.

Could this be a sign that the Bruins will trade for a 1C next free agency?

In 2025, some of the notable 1C's available will be: Sidney Crosby and Leon Draisaitl.

We recently saw Stan Bowman fumble the Oilers top prospects, as Doug Armstrong made off like a thief in the night.

It seems unlikely that he'll be able to secure Leon Draisaitl long-term when he can't stabilize his own prospects with meaningful contract. Obviously, this is partly Ken Holland's blame to shoulder as well.

But GM Don Sweeney has a chink in the armor of the Oilers, and he should strike now.
