It's especially disappointing when you see that he hasn't compensated for his lack of goals (or anything on the ice, really) with assists. He's sitting at just 3 on the season. And it's not like he's a great two-way centre. Take Toews for example. He doesn't score much but he's one of the best centres in the game because of all the other things he does right. Monny has been invisible on the ice so far this season.

20 games in, 5 G 3A. I'm hopeful he'll eventually pick up the pace, but yikes.
I agree with you, my point was that if a guy can play horrible but still put up 20 goals he's probably not a guy you want to be trading when he's 22 years old.
