We need top-end skill in the top-6 and supplement them with some size..
I don't see a problem of potentially having a top-6 as follows:
Gaudreau-Monahan-?????
Baertschi-??????-Poirier
Most of the size throughout the lineup needs to be added in the bottom-6 and on the backend, with one or two more guys with size/grittiness sprinkled at the top...

I think Colborne was getting a little gritty and using his size towards the end of the season. I would like to see how he does this year. I think Toronto didn't show him how to use his size to his advantage. With a full season as a RW, I am curious to see what he can do.
Draisaitl/Bennett would be a great fit for the Flames 2nd/3rd line.
Any of the top 4 will do. Ekblad imo would play 5/6 minutes and then work his way up to the top 4.
