Not sure if “Craig Conroy didn’t rely on his wingers” is a good argument for this one given he played the majority of his time in Calgary with a first ballot hall of famer.
Conroy was buried in St.Louis before coming here. I wonder how good Monahan would look on a 3rd line? With his zero defensive acumen and complete lack of a possession game. He can't play the position effectively imo, and requires a top flight winger to carry him. Points are not everything. Conroy and Langkow were absolutely better overall hockey players. Monahan plays with a future hall of famer too for what it's worth.
