So I don't think you can look at it - on the basis of point totals alone.
Has Monahan benefited from better match-ups? Scheifele? Who were Hall and Eberle hiding behind in Edmonton?


Is there a way that the Flames will be successful with Monahan on a 6.15x8 contract and putting up 60 pts a year? Is there a way that you see him becoming a dominate shut down guy that dominates the other teams best players.


Which of the guys in my list do you see as better player than they were at 21? Keep in mind that Crosby and Ovechkin were the best players in the league as 21 year olds..... Did they get better?
