IIRC, there was a fair amount of angst here when the Flames drafted Monahan because he wasn't a scorer and was more of a play-maker in junior. Yet, he became quite proficient at scoring in the NHL because he had a very good play-maker on his line. I know it is many years later and a different league but I don't think we should (prematurely) sell him short on his ability to create plays for a shoot-first player like Toffoli.
