Perhaps I misspoke when I said "most" of the 2009 season, but certainly he got the most consistent look there of any center we had that year. I can't remember Langkow's last few years outside of being a fixture on the Bourque/Langkow/Bertuzzi line, but I think he was still firmly the 2C that season. My recollection is that the #1 center and #1 LW spots leading up to the Phaneuf trade was a rotating cast of scrubs with Jokinen getting some games there by default, before being dealt to the Rags shortly after Stajan came in. After which point the #1 line became Hagman/Stajan/Iginla.
