Yeah, from everything I have read he's used mainly as a LW and just after the WJC has been converted to C. It's what made that top line so successful in the WJC as well as Puljujarvi is the only true RW until you get to Gauthier further down the ladder. Even Nylander has been used LW along side McLeod in Missasauga. But has been used a lot on RW too. So he's more likely to be a good conversion candidate to RW. Not sure how Laine's shot converts over on RW. He likes the left side a bunch.
