Is Nate Thompson truly an improvement over Michael Chaput?

The fourth line for the Montreal Canadiens started out as Matthew Peca in the middle with Andrew Shaw and Charles Hudon on the wing. Adjustments had moments with Tomas Plekanec at centre with Peca pushed to the wing while Nicolas Deslauriers‘ return from injury saw both Peca and Hudon in the press box.

Then the Agostino-Chaput saga started where both players were recalled from the Laval Rocket and framed their game around the desires of head coach Claude Julien. They had a good stretch but a new era is in large with the Montreal Canadiens via Nate Thompson and Dale Weise.
