I haven't read the responses this way. I think it is safe to assume by the number of responses, that most view Monahan's season as "impressive", but I don't see it as blind enthusiasm. Rather, most are pointing out that the his totals are impressive for an 18/19 year old and that a lack of highlight reel toe drags does not diminish his accomplishments.
I disagree with some that feel that he is getting "garbage goals". No doubt he gets most of his points within 15 feet of the net, but if it were so easy, everyone would be doing it. He is just good at hockey.
