This has been done 12 times in about 16 years. And will probably be done even less in the next decade.
Not only that...but most of these players are extremely offensive, sniper type wingers. Monahan is not even comparable to these players in his playing style and only Stamkos, Lecavalier and Crosby on that list play his position and they are completely different types of players.
We knew that even when he was drafted. He is a wise, high hockey IQ, 2-way, top 4 C who is capable of scoring in front of the net. He has never scored more than 33 goals in the OHL.
50 goals..
Really?!?!
I hope so...but to expect that from Sean is not really fair to him or yourself imo.  |
He scored 22 with nothing on this team being geared towards getting him offense. With age, physical maturity, linemates and increased ice time, yes. I do think he has 50 in him. He may only do it once in his career, but I would be quite surprised if he never did it.
I won't begrudge him if he doesn't. But right now, I find it hard to argue that he doesn't have it in him.
