I agree that he’s not playing well, but even still he’s managed to get on the scoresheet 2/3 games. No, that doesn’t excuse his poor play but sitting him is an absolutely awful idea and no amount of “he’s playing bad recently” will convince me otherwise.

He was over a PPG player this season because yes, he is one of our best players even though he doesn’t look like it right now. You absolutely do not sit those guys in the playoffs because they’re playing bad. You really want to swap him out for Dube or Czarnik? We need Monahan to play well, and that isn’t possible if he’s not playing at all.

If anyone up front should sit it should be Neal.
