Surprising no one here as mentioned Monahan's team/linemates. It's really not even close (this past year) compared to who Mackinnon is playing with. Not argue how great Mackinnon has been, but I think his situation is closer to Russell Wilson's with Seattle vs Andrew Luck's with the Colts.
What Monahan has done as a rookie of his age on this team is nothing short of staggering. His physical gifts may not be at the level of Mackinnon, but to me the jury is still way out who will have the best NHL career when all is said and done.
