It's not the greatest endorsement of Draisatl though, "arguably" but only when he's "motivated". Might add "when he's on McPoopyPant's wing". I agree with your take, different types of players too. Also when Johnny was injured Monahan still drove his own line, which is something Drai hasn't really shown an ability to do yet.
