That’s what I figured, but from day 1, Lindholm was playing with Monahan and Gaudreau. I have a feeling that was the coach’s call to play Lindholm on the top line because they probably saw line rushes in training camp and realized he was the better fit.
Neal looked pretty awful with Gaudreau and Monahan anyway. Guess it’s just another strike for the pro scouts who goofed it up royally with the Troy Brouwer signing.
