Brodie A (our best defensemen)
Giodano B- (our second best defensemen)
Hamilton B- (Came into a new locker room cold, but turned it around)
Nakladal B+ (Fantastic performance in his role)
Monahan B+ (25 goal scorer at 21 years old)
Frolik B+ (Came into a new locker room and provided secondary scoring)
Backlund B+ (Career year)
I don't think you can blame these guys for the Flames being in their position. All the Cs, Ds, and Fs are the reason. The guys with good grades are the reason the Flames were only a few points out of a playoff spot just before the deadline.

I agree with whose guys. You originally had Monahan at A- which I disagree with. He's still young and learning and there have been bumps in the road which is to be expected. I had him as a B+ as well.
