They are small sample sizes, but then again a Simon supporter (if there was one) would make the same argument.
For me, I don’t think Bennett’s defence is good enough for that line. I’d go:
Gaudreau-Monahan-Mangiapane (Mangiapane works hard at both ends and is good at the forecheck)
Bennett-Lindholm-Tkachuk (Bennett’s goal have been from passes coming from behind the net and guess what Tkachuk likes to do - Lindholm provides responsibility)
Lucic-Backlund-Dube (Lucic and Backlund worked well and Lucic and Dube worked well).
Simon-Froese-Nordstrom, or whatever
