With Backlund out and the Flames at the top, now is the perfect time to go back to Bennett playing center.
Johnny-Mony-Lindholm
Tkachuk-Bennett-Neal
See if it gets him going. Ryan didn't seem to fit between them anyway. If it works you have two outstanding lines in your top six and Backs can return and slot in where he should be at 3C.
