This sums up my thoughts as well. Ennis has been awesome the last couple of months at center, and the way things have been going, there's no reason whatsoever to move him to the wing...right now. It's still an incredibly small sample size, and it's waaaaay too early to judge whether or not he's a permanent solution to the team's situation at center.

I don't think there's any question at least one of our top two picks will be used on a center, and I fully expect Darcy to target one NHL-ready (or damn close) center via trade. Bjugstad is still an interesting proposition IMO

tl;dr -- MOAR CENTERS
