Important point here is to give Pelletier a Top 6 role and put him in a position to succeed. I believe with the addition of Eichel/Hoffman/Barrie, it will improve the team's offence and powerplay. Monahan needs to be groomed as a more complete center. If the team needs to load up or if someone gets injured, Monahan can be moved to 2C while Lindholm moves up to 1RW.
