I did play centre. There wasn’t really a whole lot of centres, so that’s something I done in the past and don’t mind doing. Obviously with Edmonton I think the centre position is pretty deep; we have three pretty good centres so that’s not something I’m looking to do. I’d prefer to play wing, regardless.

Patrick O'Sullivan talks about playing centre.

Hmmm

So neither Cogliano or O’Sullivan will play center.

Where is he getting three good centres, anyway? I’m pretty sure I count one, unless you start making some assumptions about various kids that may or may not be warranted.

I’m thinking he’s looking at Horcoff, Gagner and Cogliano.

He’s on the same team; that’s what he has to say. And I think Gagner’s not far from being a positive contributer.
