He has very much earned his demotions by simply not being good enough.

I'll certainly second this. At most he would be one of multiple choices on the 4th line but there's not much that he offers or has shown to be able to offer that warrants anything overall positive.
And on a semi unrelated note, still no idea why Monahan is still 'top 6 or bust'. Is there something wrong with giving him 3rd line minutes in the best league in the world?
