I think Czarnick will be a good fit on the top line. Watching the monahan highlights I notice how many goals were beautiful passing plays involving all three forwards. If czarnick ends up translating his skills to the NHL game, I think he fits the role of a guy with hockey iq/playmaking/speed/good shot with gaudreau and monahan.
Haven’t watched Neal as much the last couple seasons but I watched a lot of him when he played with Malkin. He’s very much a shoot from everywhere/shoot-first player... which can be good especially when you have a shot like his. I think that could compliment a line with tkachuk and backlund. Feels like frolik is also a shoot from everywhere kind of player but the problem is he doesn’t have as great a shot/finish so I find some nice plays tend to die on his stick. Neal would add a nice goal scoring punch to that line.
