I like Frost starting at wing the same way I like G at wing.I would like to see Frost at 3C if he doesn't get pawned in the position by the opposition. He isn't a wing. That's been illustrated in his international play. He's not a mucked in the corners. He's a speed guy.
As for Farabee, the Flyers need to,be careful with him. If he isn't ready physically and psychologically, there's nothing wrong with letting him have another round of US collegiate hockey and then signing him next spring before the POs, which the Flyers should be in. Putting him in the A for other goons to wreck like they did with Morin isn't a good idea.
I don’t like a plan of Patrick/Frost as 2/3C next year, unless you don’t plan on contending. To win the East you’re going to need 3 good centers. Can’t risk Frost and/or NP falling flat.
Frost can either start as 4C or a wing, if he earns it you can move someone else to W on a higher line. But less pressure starting at W, & his lack of strength can be better mitigated with lesser defensive responsibility.
