Monahan.
He's easily the best prospect Calgary has had since Phaneuf, but he might be the best prospect since Iginla. Dare I say, the best draft pick since Fleury.
The completeness of his game, his compete level, and his headiness are so impressive...I don't want to tread on the side of hyperbole in a 5-2 loss, but, Monahan is perhaps the best player of his draft class right now, that's how good the minutes are that he's playing for Calgary right now.
I love watching him play hockey. He's like the anti-thesis of Phaneuf. No flash, all substance.
