I totally agree with this.
I've been pretty vocal towards Monahan and the way he has been the invisible man for way too many games, including when he was on his 10 game point streak.
The way he played vs the Panthers was such a relief. So engaged every shift, battling along the boards, good positioning without the puck.
He really did deserve that empty netter for his awesome play that game, really hope he plays like this going forward. The Flames need it.
Since this thread has somehow turned into a Chiasson/Monahan/Gaudreau/Tanguay/Yakupov/Gulutzan thread and I'm guilty of it too, I'll talk a little Bennett.
I like this benching decision. I agree it's probably the best thing for him right now. Bet he comes out fired up vs the Oilers this weekend.
