What's holding the Flames back from being a cup contender is not Monahan, it's the development of Bennett.
Bennett is suppose to be a core piece and form a quality 1-2 centremen punch for the Flames to make up for the fact that they don't have an "elite" number 1 centreman.

I wouldn't use the term with MacKinnon yet.
