Those numbers should derail a lot of the Backlund hate though. He is very important to this team.
Yeah, I'm not saying that Monahan is bad, I was just saying that his value for other GMs can be anything right now.

He has plenty of legitimate reasons as to why those numbers have been low, and hopefully his numbers go up, both 5 on 5 and on the PP. Moreover, I think his numbers get better if he gets to play with Dube and Mangiapane again instead of Ritchie.
