I think it humorous people say Johnnys better defensively than anybody on the Flames. I implore anyone to go back and re watch games and tell me where Johnny is literally any time in the defensive zone compared to literally anybody else.

I'll tell you where. Literally by himself, near the blue line or at least 10 feet away from anyone just floating. And if an opposing player skates near him with the puck, he backs off and waves his stick..

Seriously, maybe the weird stats people use for facts say Monahan is worse, but at least he's in the thick of the action trying.

Just a frustrating narrative I can't wrap my head around. I know what my eyes saw. Your data arguments don't match it up.
