I don't know, I haven't made a comparison so I couldn't tell you. I would suspect tho because Towes is a player many more people are likely to recognize as that type of player since I'm sure a few people didn't even know who Ryan was before the whole offer sheet. I haven't seen a single person claim Monahan would be anywhere near as good as Towes, simply that they are both offense producing, defensive minded forwards.
I think you are taking these comparisons just a wee bit too literal.
