Quinn was a uber talented player in a very offensive era.

Early yet but Monahan looks like a far more complete player and leader.

The way he is playing, can the Flames afford to send him down? Take him out of the line up, and I actually think we are in trouble.

Will Sean become the youngest captain in flames history I a few years ? I think so.

Once he actually hits his stride and rounds out his NHL game he's going to be a top 5 centre in the NHL.

I think he has shown all of us fans, including the staff that he deserves to stay up. He is a dynamic player, and a pleasure to watch, making players around him better and shown to be building great chemistry. People still barking at sending him down to "not burn a year of his elc" should just stfu. This guy has nothing to prove in juniors, he's definitely ready.

May well be, but that would be an unbelievable accomplishment. Plenty of extraordinary young to middle aged centers in the game, currently.

Sergei Makarov also started with a 7 game point streak...at age 32 mind you, but still technically a rookie.

I bet Hartley throws Cammalleri in on the rookie line. Trained with Monahan in the offseason (if I remember correctly), and a good way to sort of ease him back in the lineup by putting him on the line he has been sheltering a little (though much less this game).

Random thought as I was waking up this morning...

The flames position in the draft last season dropped because they were winning at a time when people said they shouldn't have been winning as it would have "benefitted" the Team to get a higher draft pick. Now, the flames find themselves with a player who seems to be a big piece in continuing to win, when most people say they shouldn't be. What a strange coincidence... Or is that because of the continuity of the players in the room, being led to play with a win at all costs mentality?
