These are all pretty tough customers... and then you have guys like Ryan, Dube, Lindholm, etc who are scrappy guys and put up with a lot of stuff and are still really effective players.
Johnny is easy to focus on for some teams but I think putting Tkachuk and Lindholm on an entirely separate "top line" makes it a lot harder for teams to devote all their energy to stopping one single scoring unit.

Having said that, the Flames are 31st in hits/60 (which are admittedly subjective)
