Had the Canucks kept him, he'd be on the second or third line. Grabner is not a play maker, and he would not work well playing with Kesler and Higgins or Kesler and Burrows.
On the third line, it might work out with him and Schroeder with Hansen but no way would he be producing as he is now when playing with Taveres.
Look at Chris Kunitz. Look at his numbers before and after playing on the same line with Crosby.
Taylor Pyatt and Steve Bernier are pretty much the only players who couldn't produce when playing with the twins.

The Grabner Kesler Raymond line was actually pretty productive.
