Monohan has pretty clearly demonstrated that he can keep up and contribute at the NHL level. He has more importantly shown that he can make in game adjustments, and is already showing some small signs of progression. If he can develop at this level, then there really is no good reason to send him back to Ottawa.

I'd like to see Moon's take on this thread haha.
