It will all come down to John Wiesbrod. He seems to value girt and leadership and all of that stuff. Monahan could be his guy.
If Monahan can be a player in between Towes and Bergeron then he could be a great compliment to Baertschi.

I agree, Monahan has grown on me also. I think he has grown on a lot of other fans of different teams. I really think Monahan will be taken 5th if the Oilers are there. Need the Oilers to get 1 freakin win in their last 2 games. Tough order, but it needs to happen.
In 5 years, Monahan and Janikowski down the middle would be huge for playoff hockey. At their size even if one tops out at 1B and the other a 2nd line center, they will win playoff hockey games.
