Sean Monahan has an elite shot? Just because he has a great wrist shot doesn't mean he has an elite shot.
Laine, Ovechkin, Tarasenko, Kucherov, Stamkos, Malkin, Crosby.
These guys have elite shots. Monahan isn't even a one-timer threat from the slot on the powerplay and that's the bare minimum requirement of having an elite shot.
He needs to develop that part of his game in order to be considered.
As for this thread, Gaudreau doesn't have anyone on his line capable of creating offence for him and that's simply why is numbers are down. He's too busy trying to create for others or gets opposing teams pressuring him and he has to give up the puck.
