Couldn't Sean Monahan be to this team was Jeff Carter was to his L.A Kings teams. A center with finishing ability that isn't the best defensively.
Carter at time of trade to L.A. : Age- 27, GP-500, Goals - 196, PPG- 0.74, Hits - 239
Monahan career to date: Age-26, GP-566, Goals - 199, PPG- 0.76, Hits - 312
Very similar players IMO that are at similar points in their careers when they started to be coached by Sutter.
Not to say they shouldn’t trade him in the right deal, but to think he has to be traded because of who the coach is now just isn’t true.
