^That's some good insight. Monahan is a text book case of a player undergoing crucial surgery and coming out it as a different player. Sometimes injuries take their toll, which sucks when it's a young player in the midst of their prime.
It's frustrating for fans to see him a shell of his former self. But I'm sure it's infinitely more frustrating for him. Thankfully the rest of the team has picked up the slack. To his credit he hasn't complained once his entire tenure here. He's accepted any role given to him. He's clearly bought in to what Sutter is selling. Hard to fault a guy's decline when injuries are very clearly the reason.
