Listed as a center, Mark Letestu is expected to lineup for tonight's game at PPG Paints Arena as a left winger on the Oilers' third line.

It's nothing new for the nine-year veteran to play out of position. It's actually been key to his existence as an NHLer.

“That's how you evolve as a player in your career,” said Letestu. “You have to be able to do a lot of different things to stick around. You're not always going to score goals or be on the power play but be able to hang my hat on maybe faceoffs or the penalty kill, that can extend your career.
