I’m trying to argue that your reliance on +/- as some sort of indictment on Monahan is not a good one. And that his -1 last night was meaningless. You are stretching to try and pin a loss on a guy who had a whopping one less shot than “any of those players”. And faceoffs, while not a great stat for him, depend a lot on who he was dealing with. Anyway, there were plenty of worse players last night. One of them on the top line, a couple on line two.
