For the good of the Flames he needs to be sent back to the OHL this year.

If Monahan shows he can score 25 goals and 50 points based on his 9-game "try-out" should he still be sent down?
I agree he should be sent down if he doesn't get top-6 minutes, but the Flames might have a lot of 1st year players coming in next season (Gaudreau, Agostino, Wotherspoon, Sieloff, 2014 1st rounder). It might be best for the Flames to have Monahan come in this season so the influx of rookies is not as high next season.
