One of the biggest questions since the Pittsburgh Penguins acquired Phil Kessel would be where would he play with, on the right side of Sidney Crosby or Evgeni Malkin? But only one person's opinion truly mattered, that of course being coach Mike Johnston, and he has weighed in.

With that being the case, Patric Hornqvist ought to be on the right wing of Malkin to start the season.
