Connect the dots here please....
Monahan isn't creating those 17 shots by himself.
Gaudreau can't get an assist when his linemates can't finish.

I don't disagree, because Monahan has looked largely useless. But Gaudreau has been pretty terrible lately even when it comes to his passing.
I just went through last game to pull the few highlights (Tanev mostly) and these 2 botched passes by Gaudreau to Monahan stood out, knee and chest high:

The pair's ineffectiveness is definitely a result of both players struggling, compounded by having a 4th liner on their wing.
