Maybe he wouldn't need to. I mean he basically had the same PPG as Ferland last year, Gaudreau and Monahan get spoon-fed offensive zone starts, and they don't PK...
Crazy Idea: Derek Ryan isn't being signed for line 3/4 and is, in fact, the replacement for Michael Ferland. He plays the complementary RW for Gaudreau and Monahan. Lindholm slots into the Tkachuk-Backlund line, Frolik slides down to provide some two-way acuman to Bennett-Jankowski.
