Edit: you're talking Gultuzan's year one. He still played with Versteeg a lot on the second/third line. Not in a checking role but offensive opportunity. Until it was obvious he couldn't cut it. If he can't play in the top 6...where else do you play him if not in the bottom 6? How is that on anyone but him?
And three years after a center is drafted, it's not unusual to have them play center if they ever intend him on becoming a fulltime center. Look at Monahan.
