[QUOTE=mile;4856896]Based on what I've read or seen: (And this is playing style, I'm not saying player A is a good as player B)
Monahan: Francis - Red line used this comparable. Both big, disciplined centers with good touch around the net.
Klimchuk: Kunitz, excels playing with top players.

I'm not sure, but I think Kunitz might be more of an aggressive hitter than Klimchuk (not that Klimchuk is a shrinking violet). Monahan does look like a Francis - big centres who are leaders, and not the fleetest of foot (but not Andreychuk slow, either). Ronnie Franchise was mainly a playmaker, though, whereas last season Monahan turned on scorer mode. We'll see. Monahan could eventually become Francis's spitting image, which would be amazing.
