I watched Carolina's win over Philly yesterday and I thought he played very well. He has outstanding hockey sense and already seems to have made a decision as to what to do with the puck before he gets it. I saw him make a grand total of zero bad plays. Set up a couple of good chances, but mostly just moved the puck into the opposing end and kept it there. That said, he's currently on the fourth line seeing limited minutes so I don't think it would be a bad thing for his development if he didn't stick with the Canes.
Just wanted to pour some cold water on the "guy we didn't pick sucks" beer goggles version of the world. Didn't see the first half of the Flames / Canucks though so I can't comment on Monahan, though he looked great on his goal, looked off the shot so that the goalie couldn't commit. Can't play that any better.
