I love this pick. 2 centers in the last month with Monaghan and Knight. Both players are good in faceoff.

Ecstatic that they picked Monahan. Media people keep saying Monahan would be a first overall pick in any other draft year.

If the 67s were a playoff team, he would've been a top 4 player.

Just didn't get a chance to shine like the others cause of his situation.

would have preferred Lindholm, simply because i think he is a better skater and more explosive.

That said, I am very happy with the selection of Monahan too.

Whats even better about this pick, some of the Edmonton media really wanted Monahan and are pissed Flames took him.

Very happy with the pick and looking forward to Monahan for years as a key piece of the Flames going forward.

Like the pick but really don't understand the emphasis on him playing with the flames next year.

Worst thing we can do is rush him. Realistically we're gonna suck next year anyways, might as well let him develop properly

We are starting to accumulate some solid two-way forward/centers. Monahan, Knight, Backlund etc.

Who has said that? Not questioning you, just want to try and find it to soak it up

Also. If he goes back to Junior we'll finally have a top forward prospect on Team Canada for the World Juniors.
