They should start hash tagging boringmonahan as well as Monahan's regular twitter whenever he's mentioned.

Reading Craig Button's bit on Monahan before getting drafted. It's creepy how much truth there is to this.

Sean is a very well rounded player who has versatility in his game and can play multiple positions and situations and do it extremely well. His skills may not be flashy but they are very good with a mind that is exceptional. His skating is very good but what he does so well is change speeds and keep opponents off balance. He is quick and very difficult to knock awry. He recognizes opportunities very quickly and is able to take full advantage of them. Call it 'opportunistic' if you will but he finds a way to be productive. Very good touch around the net and his shot is accurate and he is deceptive in his approach. He can play on the wing and he can play a defensive role but the beauty of Sean is that he understands what is required of the various positions and roles and doesn't necessarily need to score to contribute to winning. Very balanced and selfless player who performs when it counts.

Here's Redline Report's description:

Highly skilled centre with a large frame and a long reach. Outstanding puckhandler and playmaker with great vision — sees the whole ice and is brilliantly imaginative. Able to hold onto the puck that extra split second to buy time for his linemates to break into open ice, and then threads the needle through traffic off both sides of the blade with feather soft passing touch. Also knows how to finish around net and has a pro shot right now. Dangerous anywhere from the blue line in. Will become more powerful and hard to contain as his body fills out. Strong skating stride with good east-west lateral moves. Good speed and quickness. Takes defensive responsibilities seriously and competes well in his own end. Showed great character by competing his bag off every night on a bad team with no help.

Projection: Playmaking, two-way first line centre.
Style compares to: Ron Francis/Joe Thornton

Here's ISS's description:

Size/Strength: Excellent
Skating: Good
Puck Skills: Excellent
Shot: Very Good
Offensive Play: Excellent
Defensive Play: Very Good
Physical Play: Good
Competitiveness: Good
Hockey Sense: Very Good

Strengths
1. Incredible vision
2. Puck protection
3. Forcing turnovers

Weaknesses:
1. Overall quickness
2. Consistent intensity

Skill:
Elite playmaking and vision off the wing combined with dominant puck possession.

Scouting Report:
Monohan's vision off the rush is right up there with the best in this years draft class, he shows incredibble vision, poise and creativity to create scoring chances. Sean has the ability to find his teammates anywhere in the offensive zone, truly jaw dropping puck mover. He uses every inch of his frame when protecting the puck and shows great poise when in possession of the puck. On the puck pursuit and backhcheck he has shown a knack for forcing turnovers with applied pressure and great stickwork. Fine tuning his stride and consistent game pace will be crucial in making a much more seamless transition into the pro game.

NHL Potential:
Top 6 playmaking center who has great instincts defensively. Must keep feet moving to reach potential

Pretty libel material in that link.

Also pretty gutsy posting it considering Brian Burke has sued a poster on this message board for posting rumors like that.

Crazy how people get offended FOR other people lol. I understand the sueing part, not worth the risk, but fans pretending like they have some emotional connection to players is pathetic. It's a game. Chase your dreams, have some goals. Not directed at anyone in particular, I just see it all the time. People care more about what some random person thinks about their favorite hockey player then what the government is doing or having some goals.

It appears to be complete garbage site. It is the internet version of gossip.

Gossip is ####, and are gossipers.

I just shared it for some chuckles at the load of crap, didn't want it to come off as gossip. Sorry.

Can we all hold hands again and praise Monahan the all mighty.
