Yep, for sure. Second season in the NHL, 20 years old, couldn't possibly be anything left to learn, no more room to grow. Hopefully everyone enjoyed Monahan's ascent to the top of the his growth potential as a player.
It was a fun ride. It was a much shorter trip than Crosby, Gretzky, Getzlaf, Kane, Towes etc, which in itself is very impressive for Sean, but I'm just glad we got to see him at his peak this season and use it for an unexpected playoff run.
Anyways, now that Jankowski will be the new Monahan and Sean has nowhere to go but down, maybe we could grab a 2nd for him before other teams figure out he's peaked?
