You Need to be Able to do the Little Things

Chara shows he can play centre if needed

Here is the breakdown

A. Lined Up As a Winger- In game 1 Chara played the power play as the net man on the Bruins first unit.  

B. Centre Gets Kicked Out- The face-off man gets thrown out of the face-off and a new player comes in, Chara come in for the face-off and wins it. 

C. Defensemen Should Practice These Things- There are situations where a D man might need to take a face-off, including this case, on the PP when he is lined up as a winger, another one could be a 5 on 3 PK and the forward gets thrown out.  It would be not a good situation for this to happen and the puck to end up in the net.
