It'll be huge to have Monahan performing like a top 6 player if he's still capable of it.

Except Lucic is outproducing Coleman and Backlund. And Mangiapane is ice cold right now. Coleman has a great work ethic but his hands are suspect IMO. He’s around that net a lot but nothing really develops. And Backs has 4 goals. 4! One ahead of Lewis.
It really depends on the role of the line though. If Sutter wants a dedicated checking line, Backlund is better with Coleman than Monahan would be.
