Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk
Mangiapane-Monahan-Reinhart
Solid top 6 and if they sign Edler that would fill the veteran hole on the back. Get some Sutter types for the bottom 6 along with Backlund, Lucic and hopefully at least 1 kid.
The pro rebuild crowd will hate it but I think that is a dangerous top 6 especially with Mangiapane’s continued ascent.

That likely depends entirely on Monny's health, which is a big question mark these days.
We saw what an injured Monny did to Johnny last year.
If he's no better this year, that 2nd line will not be good, likely forcing Backlund into the #2 centre position, which weakens the third shutdown line.
Monny's health I think is a big part of how good Calgary will be this year. A healthy Monny makes the whole line up fall into place IMO.
