Wasn't Bennett a huge Doug Gilmour fan? I believe he even modeled his game after him, and even ended up playing for him.
His dad was a Gilmour fan and suggested Bennett wear Gilmour's 93. Bennett however definitely models the skill aspects of his game on Crosby, you can see it when he uses his edges on the cycle or throws a 100 foot stretch pass out of his own zone.

Oh, I figured Monahan was a Leaf fan. Stajan was kinda middle of the pack on that team, compared to Sundin, so I wondered if young Sean got to meet him or something. Given his community mindedness, it wouldn't have surprised me.
I was just kidding about Ryan.
I’m 29 and I barely remember Sundins tenure with the Leafs, granted I never paid attention. Pretty sure Monaghan was like 13 when Sundin left, wasn’t he?
