[gilligans_off]

Why would he want tattoos? Just tossed his career down the sewer

Now he's just a goon... lol

The thing that I don't understand is why people aren't questioning how MissTeeks had Sean's topless pool pics. Is this another Jennifer Lawrence situation?

It was on his instagram!

Somebody has to help me, this has broken my brain.

How does the mirrored image thing affect the placement of the tattoo?? I put myself in behind Monahan's eyes and mirrored or not, the tattoo is on my left arm. Where in the other pics it's on my right arm.

Haha, please somebody explain it like they're Bill Nye and I'm a dumb child (because I basically am). I can't wrap my head around this.

Surprised nobody has mentioned his boneheaded comments.

"He can produce offense, yes. A 20+ goal season proved that. But his on-ice presence left much to be desired, and Monahan lacked dominance and assertiveness, spending a lot of time defending around his own net rather attacking throughout the majority of his first season. If not for his productivity (which some would say came from luck and a very low-scoring selection of opponents), the slim-built and quiet Monahan could have easily disappeared among the rest of his teammates during his time on ice."

WDF?

stand in front of a mirror, hold up your right hand - take a picture of the mirror it will appear like you are holding up your left hand

Don't use a flash though, or your evil mirror twin will swap bodies with you and you will be trapped in the mirror dimension for an eternity.

Probably because it was spot on. Monohan didn't have much of a physical presence or any assertiveness through the first half of the season.

Was much improved by the end.
Exactly as said in the article.

Seemed like a pretty fair analysis to me. He never really imposed his will on a game or shift, rather seemed to lurk in the weeds and show up at exactly the right time for a prime scoring opportunity. He was actually very timid at times IMO. This changed a bit in the last part of the season but for the most part he was more of an opportunist than a difference maker. Nothing wrong with that, it was his rookie year after all. I expect he'll be far more assertive this year.

18 year old first year NHLer, in my view had an really good season. His defense and offense part of his game improved threw out the season.

For the talented players, luck always seems to follow them.....

Not a fan of the above quoted paragraph...

I would bet the Flames brass were very pleased with his first season and it was way higher than their expectations.
