It is only "very weak" if you can show that most NHL teams boast a stronger core of players down the middle, and you cannot. You also seem to be happy to ignore the fact that while Monahan is not great defensively, he is already one of the top scoring centres in the WC at the tender age of 22—it remains a good bet that he will continue to improve. So, yes, I would agree that while the Flames centre depth is not "great," it absolutely is not "very weak." At minimum it is presently above average with good potential to be excellent in a couple of years.
