I'm surprised there isn't more discussion about the Flames sticking with Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk. Sutter and Gaudreau both downplayed their success last season but the chemistry was undeniable and again we saw them look incredible against the Canucks on Friday.
As much as it is good having strength through the line up, Sutter said that they may have made the playoffs if he went to that line earlier on and having a consistently producing top line is such a key. Mangiapane-Monahan-Coleman has potential as a line too, lots of goal scoring, 2 excellent two-way wingers and a great garbageman.
