The Toronto Maple Leafs' recent lineup changes indicate that there is no other suitable position for their top rookie, Easton Cowan.
The team has been affected by injuries, including those to Scott Laughton and Steven Lorentz, as well as Joseph Woll's leave of absence due to a personal matter.
These injuries have led to adjustments in the forward group, with Coach Craig Berube making changes to accommodate replacements, including Cowan.
Cowan, who made the team out of camp, is expected to make his season debut on Monday night, and will likely be placed in a prominent position rather than the fourth line.
