Sean "terrible at 5-on-5" Monahan?
24th with 103 points.
Hopefully this puts an end to this stupid narrative he doesn't score 5-on-5. If anything, Monahan doesn't score enough on the PP to keep up with some of those peers he gets compared to. Take "Simple Jack" Eichel. 14th in 5-on-5, but 7th in PP scoring! "Boring Sean Monahan" is Mr. Consistency in scoring, staying at 24th in almost every measure. There in lies the problem with Monahan. He's not flashy and he's consistent in his output, so the fans here who so badly want someone to complete with McDavid take out their angst and frustration on the guy who just gets the job done.

I looked it up myself and Sean Monahan is 115th in 5-on-5 points since the dismantling by the Avs and removing the Flames elite season.
Behind legends like Jordan Eberle, Zach Hyman & Darnell Nurse.
Interestingly, Monahan and Mangiapane both have 44 even strength points in 101 games over the timespan.
Mr. Consistency is no longer Mr. Consistent.
Maybe and hopefully he can get back to his old self but let's stop pretending he's the same player.
