If Gaudreau had an assist every time he made a good pass, he would have 800 points this season.
On pace for 32 points, 4 ES goals, minus 15, take your pick. There is just no number or data that supports Monahan is trending positively.
Sutter gave him all that PP1 time this year which could have helped him gain some confidence and production. I liked that approach but it has not borne fruit.
Since he isn't earning better linemates or more ice time, maybe a week off would help. He's not going anywhere this season so this should be about prepping him for the playoffs.
Hard to know what to do really. Thankfully team is playing great so it's a high class problem.
