Yeah honestly I expect this is probably why Tkachuk remains 3M. Backlund and Frolik can both hold their own and are guys I don't really worry about getting dragged into scrums. I don't want Johnny not only joining those scrums, but playing with the higher tension on the ice that comes with Tkachuk. I suspect the coaches feel the same.

I think we're crazy not to be putting Bennett on top line wing. I actually wouldn't mind swapping Johnny to RW. In the o-zone, a lot of his chances seem to come on the off wing.
