I was thinking about possible roster setups and you could pretty much have 2 centers on the three most used lines:

Gaudreau - Monahan - Lindholm
Tkachuk - Backlund - Ryan
Bennett - Jankowski - Neal

The Backlund line would do a lot of heavy lifting on matchups
Neal on the third balances the offence a bit more and they would likely have some better match ups.

The 4th line would be pretty dependable with a combination with the remaining pieces.
