Monahan is playing with a 2nd round sophomore and a 3rd year 6th round guy guy and looking not bad doing it. Plus they are miles better in their own zone. Gaudreau is playing with two high first rounders. They’d damned well better be scoring more.

Johnny had more giveaways (5) than ALL the Sens forwards , combined. Couple that with zero shots on goal and that’s a huge problem.
Yes, he made a nice pass on Lindholm’s goal. That’s NOT enough.
Tkachuk had similar giveaway problems also, but had some scoring chances.
I firmly believe that Sutter, in his post game conference is pointing out these 2 key players as being a huge reason for the loss, along with some D blunders.
