I would rather see Backlund with Johnny and Hudler, mostly because we have seen Backlund with Glencross on numerous occasions throughout the years and it NEVER EVER works well.

Also it seems Gaudreau and Hudler can make any center work with them (Jooris, Granlund) so I'm not sure putting Monahan on that line maximizes what the other line combos could be. Monahan does have that hard heavy shot however so maybe it will be magic with him being fed perfect passes.

That said, if it doesn't work we have a glut of centers that can slide in there.
