There's more to being a dominant centre than scoring goals. Most Cup contending teams have a top-flight two-way centre, someone who not only puts up points, but who can shut down opposing top lines. Monahan has to round out his game before he's in the same league as a Bergeron, Toews, or Getzlaf. In fact, I'd rate Backlund as a better all-around centre than Monahan.
