Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

This was the first time I've played left wing for a whole game, for the most part. I thought I did pretty well. I adjusted, in a good way. As the games go on, I'll get more comfortable.

That's Andrew Cogliano talking about his first time playing the wing for a whole game (he played with Peter Holland and Teemu Selanne). I don't know if he'll end up there full time, but it's a bit... I don't know... this is his first pre-season game and they're trying him on the wing. It's like they want to see all of their options or something.

In their rookie year, on the kid line, Cogliano was the centre between Nilsson and Gagner at the end of the season.

The following year, they began the season as the second line and failed miserably. MacT did however flip Gagner and and Cogliano, with Gagner centering Nilsson (LW) and Cogliano (RW).

It is definitely not the first time Cogliano has played wing the whole game.

Err…that didn’t come out right.

The following year, they began the season that way as the second line and failed miserably. However later that year, MacT did try the line again except this time with Gagner at center and Cogliano at right wing.

It is definitely NOT the first time that Cogliano has played wing the whole game.

The quote says ‘this is the first time I’ve played left wing for the whole game’.

Life is looking up for Andrew. Played a game with Selanne. Quite a change from his days here. Imagine if he sticks there, and gets 60 points because of Teemu. That would make for some interesting comments.
