"He's a guy that's only going to get better," NHL Network analyst Brian Lawton said. "I think in future years we'll hear talk about this guy being a potential Selke candidate (award for best defensive forward in NHL) because he's got that kind of game to him. He's strong, he's mobile, he's tough in the circle, this guy can do it all in my opinion. His star is only going to rise over time."
This may get sneered at but I also think Monahan can be a good defensive player.
