He's played both wings plenty...
I'm feeling like an idiot, but when? At the NHL level? Recently? I feel like I should know this but I only really recall him being a C.
Applebello!
I don't know why they call assists apples.
What are goals then?
Goats?
When do we start calling him ArcoassistoOr Arcoapplebello Edit better yet just Applebello
thought they were genos or is that just snipes?
Nah, just do a rink chant: Edmonton Side: ARCO! Opponent side: BELO!

I was going to make this comment awhile back or even start a thread of my own about it. I've watched Arco closely for the last year+ and...
I prefer Arco's game to Gagner's.
10 games is too small a sample. And he really needs to pot a goal or 2 to cement this thought but...
I think Arco is a much better CENTRE than Gagner.
Obviously Gagner has better finish and is more able to produce offensive plays better than Arco.
Arco's two way game is far superior. His faceoffs are far superior. His general positioning far superior. His passing/playmaking I think is slightly better than Gagners.
He has been one of our best players this year night in and night out.
I say keep him and trade Gags. Cause there really wouldn't be room for both IMO.

Our how about he keep Gags, play him on the wing where he's had previous success and have some C depth for a change?

At this point I think Acrobello would struggle without high end skill guys on his wings. There is certainly something desirable about finding a player like Acrobello who can play between players like Hall and Eberle without getting in their way. I like what he has been able to do up to this point.
With that said, I'm concerned that he'll become just another non-factor if he's moved off one of the top 2 lines and made to play with the Jones, Gazdics and Eagers of the team.
