Bouma-Backlund-Frolik stick together.

I pretty much agree with all of this except I would let Chiasson have the first crack on the top line. He's already been in several games and has some flow that might spark Johnny and Mony. He had a really nice shot from the slot last night that Lehner had to make a pretty good save on. After a pretty below average training camp, Chiasson has earned a chance on that top line for a couple of games at least. This will let Hamilton get his game legs under him on the 4th line playing alongside two guys that are already going well. Put either of Tkachuk or Ferland on the 2nd line, depending on who's going better in that game.
Gaudreau-Monahan-Chiasson
Tkachuk/Ferland-Bennett-Brouwer
Bouma-Backlund-Frolik
Ferland/Tkachuk-Stajan-Hamilton
extra: Versteeg
