Right side is a little more messy.
Lindholm - Peters said he'll go here.
Neal - Deadly with Chucky, but could easily swap with Lindholm.
Frolik - He's easily behind the other two and has proven to be effective at RW.
Czarnik - Less pressure here, but could bump Fro with a good showing

I would definitely like to see Neal on the top line. That line is lacking some grit that I think Neal is better suited to provide then Lindholm. Neal has a tendency to be unpredictable with his reactions (see kneeing marchand in the head). He's not going to be a physical force, but if you jack up one of his boys, all bets are off. I think that factor alone gives Monahan a little more room, and keeps a few slashes off johnny's hands. I just don't see Lindholm as much of a deterrent, and its not like Lindholm would be wasted playing on a line with Backlund and Tkachuk.
