I think wing position is more of an issue in the defensive zone. It has to do with coverage and breakouts.

I agree that you give the less experienced guy the more familiar spot.

I still, however, think the lines need to be defensively balanced. I also think Sven could do worse than be on the 4th line with Stajan (who plays with anyone) and, say, Byron (who he's had some chemistry with). I'd keep him away from Raymond because they are so similar in both abilities and deficiencies.
