He did. In our playoff year's we were consistently cursed with Gaudreau and Monahan playing their best hockey in December and cooling off after January.
In those same years their line has been touted as one of the best in hockey mid season only to drop off the radars of the media by playoff time.
Just makes you wonder if the big break and the strange timing of the playoffs this year sees the stars align for the Flames as it pertains to the top players, as maybe, just maybe, we finally get them playing well at the right time.
