Gaudreau: Just over 1000 min total at 5on5. 726min with Monahan. Then 382 with Chiasson. Then 278 with Ferland.

Monahan: 726 with Gaudreau. Then 364 with Brouwer. Then 335 with Ferland.
So, it turns out that Gulutzan not only split our two best players for a quarter of their seasons, but ensured that each was saddled with one of the two worst options we had for top six forwards for much of their seasons. Monahan was anchored with Chiasson or Brouwer for 560+ minutes and Gaudreau for 540+ minutes.
