Gerbe hates Monahan for no reason.

Beacuse hes Terrible at defense and Johnny hockey made him ...



Who would I rather have the guy playing with 3rd liners and still producing or the guy playing with a franchise player that's basically the center

That’s why I laugh at trading the 8th OA pick for him.

Well he’s a “proven commodity” yea he’s proved he’s one of the worst defensive forwards in the league and Johnny Hockey carries him

If I'm reading this right, it shows their GF/60 and their xGF/60, but only shows the xGA/60 and doesn't show the actual GA/60

So what's his actual GA/60

I know red line is supposed to show me that something is scary and bad, but that line is a projection, not reality

I see a player that is playing as a 1C in Calgary when he’s really not. He can’t quite carry that load.

2C. Lesser competition and rack up 60 points and call it a day.

He would be slotted perfectly as a 2C.

Break out a WOWY for Gaudreau, then compare Gaudreau and Skins individual impacts

Johnny Hockey has a scary red line as well, and his happy blue line isn't as happy as Monahan

So Monahan is happier and sadder than Gaudreau

With Skinner and Monahan on the ice together even a line of Dalton Smith, Matt Ellis and Patrick Kaleta would be able to pin them in their own zone

The line runs through Johnny hockey lol Even the former coach said so I don't remember the quote exactly" we don't have a true center you can have the winger be the center " He was talking about Johnny hockey

The one thing I like about Monahan however is he is a very good slot presence on the PP and has produced with the man advantage at a very high rate

Just like kyle and Matt Molasses They were only good because of JT

Same thing we happen with Sean monahan Johnny hockey made him

- GERBE!!!75PTS

Funny, but he wouldn't be playing with a slouch or anything with Skinner. When was the last time we had a 2C that could rack up 60pts or more.

Bob's question is: "if Gaudreau is driving that line, why is Monahan's blue line happier?"

Also put a nice, happy tree over in the corner

Are we supposed to use the rapm charts or the eye test? Because the Rapm charts don't bear out what youre saying

The guy averages 35 to 37 assist a year, he can pass the puck, get a decent RW on that line and see what happens.
