I'd like to see Stone & Brodie on the point, and Gaudreau and Monahan on the sides, and Ferland in front.

I think he's on the powerplay because of the one thing you didn't mention; net presence. He's the best on the team for going to the net outside of his obvious replacement Tkachuk.
But if you don't have the wheels to get to the wall and keep possession you just don't use that net presence enough to warrant him being out there.
