On the same note, no way does Baertschi deserve an F.
To me, F's are guys you wouldn't hesitate to dump for break even at best, practically nothing at worst (i.e. waivers). He's 21 with 51 NHL games over 3 seasons. Let him develop.

Both goalies should be C, meaning they both suck, but haven't sucked any more than I thought they would.

The only other change I have to this list is Smid. I'd give him a B - consistent, reliable, exceeded expectations, although now that he's set that standard for himself, I doubt he finishes the year with anything but a C.
Correct me if I am wrong here, but you expected Monahan to come up and make the big team, then go and score 12 goals in 36 games?

I don't disagree that he isn't a star player yet, but to say he only just met expectations must be a joke. Perhaps you just had crazy high unrealistic expectations?
