I just don’t think it’s fair to say Monahan relies on a star winger to carry him and then say Conroy made his wingers better when he played primarily with the best player in franchise history.

Yeah Conroy was a two way playmaker. Monahan is a one way sniper. I know who I'd rather have as my 1C if they were both 25.
Imagine Monahan trying to play with Iginla? Monahan is a poor man's Iginla himself. Iginla after he lost his power and defensive game. He just plays C but just barely. Needs a RW/C to play with to do it passingly.
