Help cycle the puck a bit instead of panicking and turning it over to avoid any type of contact.

It has to be exhausting when your constantly doing the dirty work for another player.
Disagree. I think Monahan hurts Gaudreau. He can't skate and keep up with the play, he is scared to battle when the physicality ramps up, he needs to go.
