Lafreniere and Kakko are already having difficulty adjusting to the NHL and you want them to try out a different position. 😂

If my memory serves me, Aho switched to C when he came to the NHL. I see no reason why one of these guys couldn’t

None of these guys are natural centers and shouldnt be moved to that position.

He's a natural center. He moved to wing when he was breaking into leagues, like when he entered Liiga and same in the NHL. If you recall, he centered Puljujarvi & Laine when that WJC team was dominant.

See putting your input where you shouldn’t because you don’t know anything laf has played most of the season on the third line with not great line mates because our coach is bad and needs to be fired
