Cmon we gotta stick with this exhausting trope don't ya know.
Seriously though, this team without Monahan....I can't imagine it. Dude bleeds Flames and Calgary. And all he gets is all sorts 9f heat from fans.
I'm glad he's a flame and hope he stays one for a very long time.

I mean, he obviously doesn’t suck, and the only way we should ever trade him is to get a better version of him. Still, I don’t think it’s unfair to say that he’s a guy who has good chemistry with Johnny, but is overall better suited to being a second line C. I would say the same about Craig Conroy/Iggy, and Daymond Langkow in general. Anyone saying any of those guys suck, or even aren’t valuable to the team, are either stupid or dishonest, but I don’t think it’s unfair to say that all three of those guys played that role out of necessity, and not because it was the best fit for them. I like Monahan, think he’s a good hockey player that I’m happy to have on my team, and that he matches up poorly head-to-head with most #1 centers.
