So three defensively responsible, and relatively balanced lines.
I would switch it around slightly and try to give all 4 lines equal time 5 on 5:
Tkachuk Lindholm Leivo
Gaudreau Monahan Ryan (O-zone starts)
Mangiapane Backlund Simon
Lucic Bennett Dube
Hanafin Anderson
Valimaki Tanev
Gio Nestorev/Kylington (Gio will get his extra minutes on special teams)

I really don't like Dube on the fourth line.
