Or to keep the top line ontact, Tkachuk - Bennett - Jankowski. Putting Janko at wing and in the top six would allow him to use his scoring skill to its fullest potential. The every two years line since the three were drafted two years apart with Bennett in the middle. Or Dube. Tkachuk - Bennett - Dube. 2014 / 2016 / 2017 drafts. Young explosive line. Or Tkachuk - Bennett - Czarnik if you want some corsi explosiveness.
Man these thoughts excite me.
Rocking the boat would be putting Bennett back with Hathaway.

Tkachuk Backlund Neal didn't get much of a look. Neal strikes me as a player who sometimes needs time to gel with a centre. He also is probably a guy who needs minutes in order to produce. Shooters need chances to shoot, and they just haven't come his way yet. And the games he was on that line were not the other guys' best nights either.
Right now I'm not messing with the top line. Everything else is blendable for me.
