BROSSARD – Lars Eller might have been skeptical about transitioning to the wing, but things appear to be working out just fine.
With 27 games of experience in his brand new role under his belt, the 26-year-old Dane admits that the process of moving from his full-time post at center to flanking Alex Galchenyuk on the left side has gone far better than expected. Any and all skepticism has instead been replaced by optimism, as Eller continues to learn and steadily master the intricacies of a position that seemed somewhat foreign to him prior to the start of the 2015-16 campaign.
