I can't imagine the broken thumb was a main reason. Just so weird as plenty of top line scorers go through cold snaps where the bounces don't go their way and they lose a bit of confidence but it's pretty rare for a top line player enroute to a career season almost overnight becoming your worst forward for over 1/4 of a season and into the playoffs.

I've been speculating personal life for a while. Maybe "boring monahan" is actually depressed Monahan.
