He is far from a defensive liability out there either, that is laughable. He plays against the top defenders and other #1 centers on a nightly basis. He isn't perfect.

I only own two jerseys and there is a reason his name is on one of them, I believe he brings a lot to this team and what they need next to Johnny Hockey. I don't think he is will be someone who will ever be flashy on the ice, he just plays hard, simple hockey and he is good at it. Let's keep it that way. As long as he stays healthy, he is on track for a marvelous season. I think Lindy helps Monahan be a bit more free and worry less about the defensive side of things. Love the line combinations so far.
Lindholm really fits well there.

His presence makes it harder for oppositions to cheat on Monahan and Johnny plus he provides some freedom as he can take draws as well.
