Giroux played wing his 1st 2 years and it didn't exactly derail his career. Seguin is doing it now. Zetterberg does both. Carter plays both. Elias can do both. Dubinsky does both. Schenn is currently playing wing in Phi. Malkin does both. Pavelski does both.
They don't have to move anyone for now. They can just send Gally down to Sarnia after 5 games. Next season, they'll most likely have some center complaining one way or the other, so they might as well move one or just not sign Desharnais with a bunch of excuses for the fans.

It's not because center X isn't complaining in another team that no one on this team will complain or just not perform as well as he should. I'm more worried about the not perform as well as he should part. You have to use your personnel's strengths if you want to win anything in this league.
