So far this season we've seen a few guys on that top line with Gaudreau and Monahan, and each of them have had good moments. Which one of these guys do you think makes the most sense up there?

Lindholm -- has had success, especially against Vancouver. Great release, decently physical, good PKer as well.

Neal -- still in the midst of adjusting. Seems to have decent chemistry with Tkachuk and Bennett. Sure paid to play on the top line

Tkachuk -- great player with basically anyone he plays with. Has a long history with Backlund. RW is his off-side, but he looked good in spurts there today.

Or should it be somebody else on that top line? (Knowing Bill Peters, we'll probably see Derek Ryan there at some point.) What are your guys' thoughts?
