Who's to say he didn't earn it? Especially when we consider that Monahan didn't carry his team into the playoffs and still made the team (rightfully) after his first pre-season.
I never decided he didn't earn it. It was the Flames who decided that, for now.
If it was up to me, I would have played him last night. Hell, I might have kept him instead of returning him to Kingston (which was the right move though).
