Ahhh - the old “you must be related” argument. Always a winner.
No, I’m just a guy who likes honesty in the analysis and not narrative driven by poor analysis. Monahan has struggled this year. But on a night when the puck didn’t go in for anyone, it’s funny to single out a guy that didn’t really do anything wrong like blow a coverage, or miss a wide open chance.
Reliance on +/- or giveaway stats which are wonky is not a decent analysis IMO. Face offs are a better stat but still depend a lot on opposition and wingers.
It’s just so predictable after a loss - the same people go after the same targets no matter what actually happened in the game.
