^Clearly Monahan no longer needs sheltering
fancy stats says so too

Through 19 games, Monahan’s progressed quite a bit. He has a 48.45% even-strength CorsiFor, a big improvement over his 43.81% from last season. He’s facing tougher competition than last year – facing Alex Ovechkin and other elite players rather than third liners. And his offensive zone starts have been significantly varied – he’s begun 44.38% of his shifts in the offensive end, compared to 54.60% a year ago. His most common line-mates this year have been Jiri Hudler and Curtis Glencross, as he’s anchored the team’s shutdown line.
