Again that doesn't mean that he will turn out better but to make it out like they are neck and neck is silly.

There was a reason the Oilers and Senators were interested in trading up to get Monahan. Oilers in particular passed on Horvat once the Flames took Monahan. Monahan was regarded by every consensus as the better prospect. Debating who may be the better player is one thing but it cannot be debated which player was regarded as the better prospect.
