I can't think of another player that GG has "forced" off of their preferred side. His wingers play off wing all the time.

Of course there are exceptions. I still think, however, that Brodie is a smart enough hockey player to adjust. He or the fans or both are using this as a crutch to explain why he isn't playing well IMO. I still think the biggest change for him is that he's not playing with a Norris calibre defenceman.
