The premise of the article was to take Monahan and Gaudreau off of "first line" scoring duties by balancing the scoring responsibilities on the other lines and/or building around Tkachuk as your "first line".
So while I disagree that the solution involves putting Bennettt with Tkachuk, the reality is that unless Gaudreau and/or Monahan are miraculously traded for a solid return, the big changes this year will be in net and on the blue line.
