This has been bugging me for quite some time and I was wondering if there was any explanation as to why? This just seems to make so much more sense then the way he has been used this season.
Too stupid to play positional hockey, which is a lot more important from a winger.

A) Doesn't possess the physical tools to do puck retrieval in the corners.
B) His speed is best employed through the middle of the neutral zone.

Wow, that says something about stupidity! Too funny. How embarrassing for YOU.
Yes and this is why he needs to be at center. That said, center ice requires far more positioning than wingGrabovski is a puck-chaser. There's no thought in his game, just go go go.
A) What he may lack in physical tools (arguable) he makes up for in effort.
B) Uhhh, why?
You've never heard of the importance of speed through the center of the ice? It's been a staple of the Red Wings (and by proxy McLellan's Sharks) for many years.

That's nice dude, but you actually said wingers have more positional structure and that simply isn't true, centers have WAY more responsibilities in the game, far more complex position.
Yea, but wouldn't you rather someone with speed AND vision streaking through center ice so the end result isn't a turnover 9/10 times? Grabovski also seems extremely prone to open ice hits through the neutral zone. I think his puck-pursuit style of play could be better suited for the wing.
