Fantasy Impact:
A couple of seasons ago, Wheeler was moved to Center when Mark Scheifele spent an extended period of time on the IR. During that time Wheeler showed quite well in an unfamiliar position. Wheeler has been off to tremendously slow start to this season by his standards, so perhaps this new challenge will spark something for him.
