This is part of the reason why I wanted Monahan traded this past offseason. I knew he was not going to have the same opportunities this season and was likely going to struggle because of it.
I didn't think he'd have 0 even strength goals 20% into the season. But then again, I've always thought he was a pretty overrated goal scorer, but he does have underrated playmaking ability. At the very least though, right now, he's still playing hard and winning faceoffs. So, he can still help the team a bit even if his contract looks bad going forward. Hopefully some teams still think they can "fix" him though.
