Blues' Center Depth Likely Keeps McMichael on the Wing

The St. Louis Blues' crowded center depth chart appears to have made a position decision for Connor McMichael, though the organization isn't completely closing the door on flexibility. McMichael's skill set could theoretically work down the middle, but the Blues' current roster construction suggests the wing is his most likely home. This kind of positional assignment early in a player's development can shape his entire career trajectory and role within the organization.
