Tkachuk - Backlund - Johnny
Mangiapane - Monahan - Lindholm
Dube - Bennett - Lucic
Plugs - Ryan - Plugs
It really doesn’t need to be more difficult. Each line gets a nice mix of speed & skill, 5v5 competence and zone entry as well as reasonable forechecking and defensive acumen.
Backlund isn’t a 1C but he can match up against any 1C in the league. Johnny gets help on zone entries and along the boards.
Monahan gets help on the forecheck and zone entry.
Playoff line worked in the past.
