Fans WAY over-estimate the whole 'injury prone' thing. Very few players are actually injury probe. Injuries are random, and two past injury riddled seasons does not mean more injury riddled seasons. I mean, look at Tanev - he is as 'injury prone' as you're going to find, and he has been healthy for a year and a half now (please God, don't let this be a jinx)

When assessing a player, the question is: what can they bring to the table, and is their contract reasonable value for those skills. Saying 'yeah but he has had a couple injuries, is a great way to miss out on a good player.
I didn’t say Tuch was a bad player I just pointed out that Gio4PM was overrating him in my opinion.

Maybe Brad can use your sales pitch to find a taker for Monahan?
