He's been playing everywhere. Centre, Left Wing, they've thrown him on the right side a couple times as well. Ward looks to be getting him in almost every forward position in a few different situations and letting him learn and try things out. They are testing him pretty hard in the AHL and it seems like Ward wants him to be ready in all situations when he does go back to the NHL.
It would be my guess the Flames would utilize him as a centre since they don't have alot in that position. Plus, his preferred wing position is left and so if him and Baertschi are together, they both can't play left wing and I can't see putting either on the right side as they both have left shots.
