Patrick Sharp will probably start the season as the team's second line center.
"The last six years I don't think I've played one position more than another," Sharp said. "Left wing, right wing, center and even defense on the power play. I'm sure if I start at center I'll play some games at wing, and if I start on the wing I'll play some games at center. It's an asset to be able to play all positions. I really don't care as long as I'm on a line that's working." Sharp will probably play alongside Marian Hossa while Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane will make up two-thirds of the first line. Andrew Brunette will play on one of the top two lines and Viktor Stalberg, Michael Frolik, or Bryan Bickell will round out the list of top-six forwards.
