I completely get that. I personally feel Patrick Stefan is a poor example and something that occurred back when teams didnt necessarily have the best scouting staff.
Anyways, I dont think Monahan will be able to match Yakupov in terms of points scored, but two way play could be Toews-lite. I like that no matter how you slice it.
