Let's get him to the wing where he's more likely to get better shooting options and can more freely use his speed. Bring in a 3rd C that can win draws. Foegle's career FO% is at least 49%.

How is moving to the wing going to help McLeod? He already plays a perimeter game but at least as a center, his position requires him to me more in the middle of the ice. If you push him to the wing, you just pushed him even farther away from the goal position wise. So by being a winger, the player needs to go towards the goal even more to get into scoring places and he doesn't like doing that. He doesn't have a great shot where he can score from distance on the wing so being a winger, you just made it even harder for him to produce offence. Not to mention, wingers generally by the nature of their position of playing closer to the wall, usually are the ones who have to go into corners to go get pucks. Which is also something he doesn't like to do.
