I'd try to shelter one of Foo/Jankowski with Backlund and Frolik. I don't see Tkachuk's game translating well with the top line personally so I would do something like
Gaudreau Monahan Ferland
Jankowski Backlund Frolik
Tkachuk Bennett Foo
I think the top pairing can produce fine with Ferland. Backlund and Frolik will allow a good two way up and comer like Jankowski to flourish. Having Tkachuk and Foo gives Bennett the skill and truculence he needs for his game on a "young guns" line. Throw whoever you want out on the forth line as long as Hathaway is one of them and we got ourselves a team.
