Regarding Monahan. That was a nice heads up pass to a wide open Tkachuk on the 5th goal yesterday.
He made a similar clever seam pass to a sneaking in Killington against the Rangers that could have easily been another assist. And then he got a wide open chance later he couldn’t bury, but usually does.
His days of tap ins and easy assists are probably done now that he’s away from Gaudreau. But if he keeps up his heads up ability the points will come, just not as abundant as before.
What I like is he’s not pouting and is buying into the system as well. Hopefully he finds his groove on the second line at some point.
