Why is the center important?

Offensive AND Defensive

The center position is extremely important and a coach needs to be careful who he allows to fill this role. A center needs to be both offensive- and defensive-minded, as well as have superior playmaking skills to move the puck to wingers. A center also needs to have good foot speed because they have to cover the most ground.
