I don't think it's crazy that Monahan gets a late 1st.
He's on pace for 22 goals/58 points. His defensive game is solid. He's really strong in the dot. He's a well liked vet.
His sh% isn't inflated at all.
He put up similar pace last season.
If you've watched him, he's playing with passion and going into the tough areas.
He's been a solid playoff performer.
The biggest red flag is his injury history. But the team acquiring him is doing so as a rental so that doesn't really matter.
He's also making 1.95m. A team can get him for close to league minimum.
I think Seravalli is full of #### though saying Monahan is worth more then Tanev. If Monahan can fetch a 1st, Tanev can also get a 1st.
I could see it being a conditional 1st, based on getting past the first round or something
