Yeah, this is the point. Monahan hasn’t played very well so far tonight. But a softy like that and more complaints are about the little play at the blue line. Roll the video back and there’s a bunch of the same plays on both teams. The difference there was the non-save.
That certainly isn’t “Monahan can do no wrong”. It’s “let’s apportion blame a little more reasonably on that play”.
