Hey, at least Morgan Frost has played center at some point in his life, and did so to a high degree of success.

Did you even read the post or did you just read the title and decide to go fishing for thanks?

No, I just recognized stupid the minute the I read the title. Of course I read the post, and it made no sense. Tkachuk has never been a center and playing him there would force him to learn a new position. It is ridiculous to think that you could just drop a winger into the middle and believe that success is likely to follow. Do you know how many players who have been centers their whole lives growing up can't cut it in the NHL and have to shift to the wing where there is less responsibility? Asking a winger to switch to center is a huge ask. Doing it on the top line is just crazy. You are trying to force a square peg into a round hole. Plain. And. Simple.
