Dvorak scored a lot in junior and was line mates with Tkachuk and Marner. Wondering if a reunion with Tkachuk might help both players.
Bit of a side track but I think Monahan is the odd duck in the line up.

Monahan has had many injuries, but for the most part, they have been unrelated. Kind of reminds me of what Backlund went through early in his career. I think that aside from the beating he takes night after night in front of the net, and his (perhaps unwise) tendency to play through injuries, Monahan is just as likely to have a healthy season as any other player. That's why I'm picking him as one of the Flames I'm expecting to have bounce back seasons this year.
