Watch the guy play. He looks like someone who is quite used to the middle of the ice, and having everything go through him.
He didn't accept a shift to the wing, he was moved there because he struggled to produce as a centre iceman. After moving to wing his offence rocketed up, he is going to be a winger. This sounds like the draft Iginla no matter what crowd trying to grasp at straws to strengthen their argument.
