He smartly cleared the puck out a couple of times without icing it, unlike his counterparts. He was playing with new line mates tonight and I clearly remember a pass to an open and unwitting participant that didn't know what to do with it.

I didn't think Monahan was good for Monahan. I said I didn't think he was their worst player tonight. I never said he was selfish. I just didn't like his overall game compared to how he usually plays, but you could say that about most guys tonight. He just seemed off to me. For the record I'm a huge Monahan fan, I even have his jersey, but I'm not going to blindly drool over the guy every night. If you saw it differently then fair enough, but I thought he had an off game.
