Centers are obviously more important, but if Ruzicka can have a successful transition to wing in this league, while still maintaining his preference as a natural centre, then the organization is all the better for it. His skillset is needed in the top nine, and without an injury there isn't any room for him in the top 3 center positions.
Like many tweener type prospects, he has all the tools to be a really good NHLer. His day to day consistency as a pro will make or break his career.
