The way things are built though there isn't a 2nd line.
Coleman and Backlund are certainly not scoring like second liners but they're only a few points away from doing so.
Based on production / 60 the Flames break down as follows
1st Line
Gaudreau
Tkachuk
2nd Line
Lindholm (1 point short of top line)
Mangiapane (1 point short of top line)
Lucic
Dube
3rd Line
Coleman (1 point short of 2nd line)
Backlund (3 points short of 2nd line)
Then a huge drop off.

too lazy to look-- are these numbers based on PPG or absolute numbers? If the former, Calgary has played fewer games than most and I'm guessing those 1 point misses get bumped up a category.
