And I disagree about him being better defensively.
Aside from the obvious (Bergeron, O’Reilly or on the other end, McDavid) saying who’s better defensively is a tougher task, since defence is a team effort and one linemate can make another look pretty bad. People complained about Monahan’s D 3 on 3 but I think that was a bad matchup, Gio switching late and just some good speed by Nylander.
