I'm open to finding a different look in the top six, and maybe you can fit Phillips in for sure. But Toffoli isn't sliding three lines.

Or move him down to the Backlund line and move Coleman down. The Lindholm line is the third line this year imo, with the Backlund line having been the best line and the Kadri line being second best, so it is not much of a drop. But unless you are saying that Toffoli is the straw on that line, something is off when two studs like Huberdeau and Lindholm look like they have looked this year. But you are probably right, the Flames will likely keep rolling with what has put them in the place they are currently in.
I am fine with moving the pieces around, even if it is a guy who has been their most consistent threat, on a team that is 10th in winning percentage in their conference.
