Andrew Boehmer:
No way.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Tyler Bozak is a beast in the face-off dot (number seven overall in 2016-17 and yes, that matters) and I like William Nylander and Mitchell Marner on the wing, for now.
The chemistry built between Auston Matthews and Nylander is a beautiful thing and I would hate to break that up for little reason. But, if one of the two were to become center, it would be Nylander and not Marner.
I think the potential for Willie to bulk up a bit more is there and from what I’ve seen, as more instinct than Marner at the position. No knock on Marner, though. I just think he needs to stick on Bozie’s wing a littler longer, but will eventually have to be shuffled bit because Bozak won’t be there forever.
