Given his cerebral playmaker first goalscorer second playstyle I'm pretty sure Makarov could easily play LW. It's still intriguing to me why did he play RW and Krutov LW to me to this day. It's a rare sight for a star goalscorer to play LW while being right handed (left shot). Ovi plays LW but he of course shoots right. One more guy who did that like Krutov was Bobby Hull. You get a lot worse angles to shoot from the LW although you can protect the puck easier.Kamensky crossed my mind yesterday when I began thinking of this, but then I forgot. Makarov too, but I couldn’t find time for his old version considering the depth at RW. Kamensky makes a lot of sense at LW though!
