Written option number 2:
If I could play any other position aside from my own I would pick left defense. It’s very similar to my preferred position on the right side.
All jokes aside I think that if I had to choose a new one I would go center. I like the concept of running a power play, and that idea was what drew me to defence in the first place. I think centre can kind of accomplish the same idea, where you are running a line. You are the faceoff guy, you run up the middle, you are expected to be the first forward back to help out the d, and you make space for the wingers to shoot their shot. You are the king out there and that lines up a lot with my style of play. One scary aspect is having to take faceoffs. I absolutely hate when I get pulled into a draw already, but I think it that was an expected part of my role I could practice at faceoffs until I was great at the dot.
