Couture / ModernDayStamkos / Carter / Scheifele / Monahan / Johansen
As for point totals, I'd be weary of them. The Flames are a very dangerous offense and no doubt Monahan has some contribution to that but I'd wager our blue line and high-risk high-reward offensive system has the most contribution to that.

I agree that Crosby and more of the centers on your list above are on a higher level than Monahan, but he is much better than most above him as well.
