I have a hard time interpreting those "with and without" numbers but if you're trying to isolate Monahan's performance I think you look at other players to see if he makes them better. Dube for example is better with Monahan than without.
All this assumes I'm reading natural stat trick right.

Richardson is the bigger issue from what I can see.
You can pretty much right up the whole team as a positive to not be on the ice with him.
Trevor Lewis with almost no difference, but horrific with or without.
Lucic off 24% with Richardson
Monahan 21%
Pitlick 21%
Ruzicka 19%
Dube 40%
Only Ritchie seems to get an uplift.
Monahan would be a 55% xgf player if you take out the 50 minutes he's played with Richardson.
I hear what you're saying about looking at it both ways, but another way is to isolate a player and see how many players he helps. Richardson tanks everyone.
