I fully agree. He is an excellent one timer on his off wing with a great angle on the goalie. Looks really comfortable on that right side. Many of his highlights come from the right side. I wonder how well he can take a transition pass from D onto his backhand when playing the right side.
It wont surprise me one bit if he quickly becomes the ideal RW for Gaudreau-Monahan line. Perhaps not this season but certainly by 2017-18.
