Yeah, I was thinking about Cheechoo compared to Monahan the other day.
I doubt Monahan had a diagnosis that he kept to himself. He was likely just sore and playing through it, to his detriment. Players play through pain that goes away all the time. Maybe he should have been more aware, but he’s a 20 something with a HS education. I bet the pain went away with rest and resurfaces quickly in games. He often got off to decent starts in games (like last game) and then tailed off.
