How the hell are two players who are 14th and 18th in scoring at their positions over their careers, and a measly 21 points apart, not be considered in the same range? It isn't pumping Monahan's tires, its pumping the breaks on the gross misrepresentation of what Jack Eichel is. He is talked about here like he's in the same class as McDavid and Crosby, which he is clearly not. When you are 158 points behind a guy in scoring you are not in the same class. When you're only 21 points apart from a guy, you're in the same conversation.
