Doesn’t this sort of put the Flames in a similar situation to the start of this season? I mean it obviously looks better on paper, but we all thought the new lines looked good on paper going into this season and failed spectacularly.
I think if the goal is to have a high ene second line, I’m not sure that a Monahan-Lindholm-Dube does anything for us. We don’t know what Monahan can do from the wing position and we’ve seen the Lindholm + Dube duo together and they looked incredibly average.
If only there was a way to create a line up like this instead:
Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk
________-Eichel-_________
Mangiapane-Backlund-Dube
