Monahan already plays like a winger, so may as well play him on the wing. It should take some pressure off of him allow him to focus more on offense.

Hasn’t been playing like a top 6 forward?
Gaudreau has had a bad stretch of 20 games by his standards for sure but he still has 21 points in 29 games.
14 points in his last 20 games.
No those aren’t superstar numbers like we are used to seeing him put up, but very much respectable as a top 6 forward.
