All I'm saying is that there's a clear ranking between the two players. That's why it's not close. Added to that, there's uniform sentiment around the league on the ranking that no amount of huffing and puffing will cloud over.

Please enlighten us with evidence of said clear ranking. Us poor, sheltered Flames fans long for knowledge of the outside world - maybe you can bring it to us.
So far, we have one voice, Duhatchek, who thinks they are comparables. I agree with him.

Fans clearly display a what-have-you-done-for-me lately mindset. And Monahan has struggled a bit this season, compared to last. Meanwhile Barkov is having a breakout season with Jagr and Uber-dough.
Step back and look at the big picture, and the players are as close to comparables as you'll ever find.
