Do not taunt Happy Fun Sean Monahan...

If we didn't trade Monahan he would have exactly zero goals right now.

I was happy to see him score.

LOL. I watched WKRP in Cincinnati during the pandemic and for some reason all this Sean Monahan talk made me think of the episode "Real families", where a tv crew follows Herb all day and everyone said the exact same thing to the television crew. "Herb Tarlek is a hard worker, a loyal husband, and an all around fine person."
I knew it was remote, but thought someone would get a kick out of it.

That was a classic Monahan goal. In the right place to get the puck, and puts the puck in just the right place. Making it look easy. Hope he gets a load of goals like that and stays fully healthy this season.

TrentCrimmIndependent · 10-12-2022, 10:43 PM

i won't be hurt if he scores 30 again . like I can't imagine a world where I am mad about that

Strange Brew · 10-12-2022, 11:06 PM

Too bad there wasn't a condition where Montreal sends Flames a pick if Monahan meets certain performance criteria. Just a situation where one team had all the leverage.

Monahan with a ton of ice time too. Good for him.

The way I’ve always viewed this has been Monahan + 1st for Kadri. Which is still a trade I do 100%. That said I am very happy for Monahan and hope he hits it out of the park this year.

dino7c · 10-13-2022, 12:08 AM

Its also 7 years of Kadri vs. 1 year of Monahan assuming he makes it trough the first week

Absolutely agree with this however watched some of that TO/Mont game to see who "stood out".

Imagine my surprise when #91 turned out to be Monny and prior to the goal was winning puck battles along the boards in TOs end, playing 200 foot hockey (where'd he learn that ! )and made a great pass to Caufield on a miss. He played well for the two periods I saw and good on him.

It's the start of the season so who knows but he looked good last night.

Monahammer · 10-13-2022, 09:02 AM

^ He was playing 200 foot hockey here last season, but was playing mostly with Lucic and whoever, then got injured again. I think he learned from Sutter too.

Good luck to Monahan this year, it was great to see a quick goal on his birthday!

I haven't seen that show...is the punchline that they end up following him to seedy motel(s)?

I watched the game just to see Monahan, and to me he looked good.

Stats show it too - 74% xGF last night, and a goal.

Hopefully he has a big season, I didn't really want to move the guy and would have much rather used a first to move Lucic.

Yup. the surprise at winning puck battles is surprising to me. Even while fighting through the injury he was going to the boards a lot more in the last 2 years.

Herb Tarlek himself is the punchline.

Spoiler!

Yeah, too bad Lucic to Boston didn't work out.

My idea is better. I'll write a spec script.

JohnnyB · 10-13-2022, 01:38 PM

Funny that Monahan was traded for nought but cap space yet will end up getting cheered when he comes back to the dome while his old buddy was a top star in the league last year and will end up getting booed when he comes back.
