Sorry ... tongue in cheek, but you put what you think are your best players together and because of that they are what they are.
The Flames have four clear cut star forwards, a clear next best forward in Backlund and then a Frolik/Bennett toss up for the 6th guy. Because of that they both have time on the 2nd and 3rd lines and with that get a % of time with top players and a % of time without.
They are where they're meant to be or they wouldn't be there.

Well, except we are already paying Neal to be the 6th forward, so that creates a problem... The spot as Tkachuk's RW is already taken... on the salary chart.
