Least impactful two-way center out of the four goes to the wing where he can focus on offense, which he's pretty good at especially with the 15+ foot head start he would get. If we had a Kopitar, a prime Mike Richards, and Jeff Carter, who would you put on the wing? I'd keep Kopitar and Richards at C and put Carter on the wing, like Darryl did. As a bonus it gives Bennett a chance to play with top six forwards for once.
