So whatever other imaginary metric people may use to show MacKinnon is better - "generating chances", "being explosive", "needing to be shut-down", "Tim Horton's Commercials starred in", my point is that the things that can actually be measured on paper - goals and assists - show they're closer than some in this thread are giving Monahan credit for.

Monahan's not as flashy or dominant as MacKinnon but he gets it done quietly and effectively - at least to this point in his career.

(As someone else says, MacKinnon is finding his stride after a couple rough early years but that is actually another credit to Monahan in my view to have not struggled early on like MacKinnon did.)
Tune to 960 tomorrow or any other news channel. Whose name is going to be "up" more for discussion more? Monny or Mac? Wanna bet $100?
