RW - Yikes. No natural top 6 RWs but Mangiapane, Dube, Reider, Czarnik have filled in.

Really Flames should send down Rinaldo and call up Czarnik. Then if you could add a RH top 6 winger, even just a guy like Kase even that goes a long way.

Tkachuk - Lindholm (RH) - Mangiapane/Dube
Gaudreau - Monahan - RW Acquisition (RH)
Bennett - Backlund - Czarnik (RH)
Lucic - Ryan (RH) - Dube/Mangiapane
Reider

At that point you have a natural RH shot on every line, and you could roll 4 lines all game long. Which to me is what matters. As long as you have on natural RH shot on each line that gives you the balance you need.
Switching out Czarnik for a guy making league minimum hurts the acquisition space for that top six though. You want to accrue as much space as you can.

Plus I'm not a Czarnik fan ...
