The Flames tried to trade up for Barkov at the time and he has always had the higher ceiling. That being said, Monahan is having a bad season, and if you compare the career points it’s not been that much of a difference.

I have no problem with the Monahan pick, Barkov was not available. At this point though, Barkov is mvp caliber and hopefully they beat Tampa Bay and Carolina. I think he is in Mackinnon territory and had never really played on a good team before. Ekblad is also looking good.
