Not sure what your point is. Seems misguided.

Monahan has never been a player who plays with much of an edge or fight and nor is he expected to, that's not his role. It's not Scheifle's role either, so don't expect that to continue. He probably felt obligated to do something considering he put Laine in that position.

If you want to express disappointment over Monahan's season, you would be better off doing it through comparing Monahan and Scheifle's ability to create offence/score. So far Sceifle is embarrassing Monahan in a that department (the one that matters for these two players).
