My post wasn't to be negative, I was looking for any rationale reason as to why the lack of excitement that he has shown before or similar to his teammates in the same moment. It was weird and not typical.
I also thought Textcritic's reply was very very good. I think it is the right one! I also noticed Monahan's low key response in overtime and at the time I got the impression it was a set play. I am sure Monahan was probably quite tired at that point and Johnny put in a little extra jam in the celebration because he was hauled down twice with no call. Johnny was definitely on a mission and the mission was accomplished!! Now if it was a set play Monahan's job is to distract the players, goalie while Hamilton came up the middle. This was kind of confirmed for me when I looked at the expression on Hamilton's face he seemed excited but didn't seem surprised.

I see where you got that impression from your observation.
