If Lindholm is a better center than Monahan, why would Monahan center Lindholm? I guess this is just sort of my problem with the whole purple gatorade line.
Lindholm can't cover the defensive zone ice half as well if he's limited to wing assignments.
This is also my issue with Bennett on the wing in most cases. You're basically taking away these two players' best assets.
