He had 66 (28 goals) points and was a +30 and a total defensive stalwart. Think Bergeron but more physical. Also, 21 points in 23 playoff games. Put it this way, if we had 2014 Toews instead of Monahan, I'd say we're a sure fire contender. There is a reason he has 3 cups and earned a 10M contract (even if hes not worth it now)
I'd call the Backlund/Richards a wash, you could make the argument Backlund has a small edge.
Ryan and Janko have 5 points combined through 15 games, that's not good enough.
The flames center depth is not good enough. Period. I'm gonna take a break from this thread for a while. I've made my point.

I'm not comparing Toews and Monahan. Toews was better. I'm disputing whether there were two elite, or even two really good centres on that Hawks team. Which was your argument in the first place.
I guess you've backed off that argument if you think just replacing Monahan with Toews is good enough. That's certainly not what you said before.
