I didn't find this yesterday, but it's worth a read.

Breaking down what makes Sean Monahan of the Calgary Flames so special


Quote:
Sean Monahan has been outstanding for the Calgary Flames so far, and put an stamp on it by setting up and scoring the game winning goal tonight against the New Jersey Devils. This was a surprisingly outstanding game that ended in a not-so surprising way: With Monahan scoring another big goal for the upstart Flames.
While he’s not quite leading all rookies in scoring, he’s arguably been the best youngster so far in the young season. He’s taken on way more responsibilities than the likes of Tomas Hertl and Nathan MacKinnon, and has been at the center of the surprising start for the Flames.
Meet Jiri Hudler - landlord and "offensive motor"

Quote:
In addition to the stiff-brimmed job he wore to greet the media Saturday morning, Jiri Hudler is sporting a number of hats these days: * As the collector of seven points, Hudler is the National Hockey League’s leading scorer.
* As the landlord of Sean Monahan, he is the keeper of the Calgary Flames’ most precious commodity.
A lot of responsibility.
“Monny is a young guy and I love having him at the house,” said Hudler. “For me, I like to have fun. We’re playing pool and talking about hockey. All the time, we do fun stuff.
“But when I get sick of him, I’ll find a place for him.”
Hudler, when he joined the Detroit Red Wings in 2003-04, lived in Robert Lang’s basement.
So is Monahan in the cellar, too?
“No, no,” said Hudler. “He’s got the presidential suite. He’s all set.”
