People keep putting Ryan as the 4th line center but I don't think that will happen in the beginning. I'm sure he'll be on the 3rd line until somebody supplants him.

Lindholm will likely be RW to Backlund and Tkachuk. Neal to Johnny and Monny. Swap Lindholm and Neal around.

Ryan will center Bennett or Jankowski and Czarnik or Frolik.

Jankowski or Czarnik will center the 4th and Lazar will be the constant on wing with Brouwer in and out of the lineup until he acquiesces to a trade (salary dump).

Gaudreau - Monahan - Neal/Lindholm
Tkachuk - Backlund/Lindholm - Lindholm/Neal
Bennett/Jankowski - Ryan/Backlund - Frolik/Czarnick
Lazar/Frolik - Jankowski/Ryan - Brouwer/Czarnik/Frolik

I think Frolik could spend time on the 4th.line this year. Brouwer will have to step up if he wants to play. I'm wondering if he can with a new coach. I'm also wondering if Treliving has something in the works to get rid of Brouwer.
