Monahan and Bennett not becoming the needed 1-2 Center punch is why the teams 1st window failed. (That and the Neal / Hamonic acquisitions)
The team doesn't have a second window where pieces like Zary, Coronato, Pelletier could be added to the existing core because Gaudreau and Tkachuk left.
Think both are equally painful TBH.
