Player Discussion Sean Monahan

[KevSkillz4]

Kent Hughes just said if Monahan play like before, he want to keep him with Montreal.

I really always like Sean Monahan, his injuries don't help him... but only 28 years old in October next season, he can rebound and if he rebound... Habs have a pretty good C in their line up.



Welcome to Montreal!!

Martin St- Louis will fix him.

 

[salbutera]

IMO Monahan is better suited for Eastern Conf speed game & MSLs concept will suit him well.

Really like this move

I know this a meme but it somehow triggers me

 

[Rob Sense]

We have the capability...we have the technology...we will rebuild him...the six million dollar man!

Martin St- Louis will fix him.

 

[Habaneros]

Let go Monahan/!!.... contact year....a coach who doesn't want you to play a system...light it up !

Good luck and welcome to Montreal!

Famous speedster with two consecutive hip surgeries in the last two years Sean Monahan will zip through the Eastern Conference like a hot knife through butter

Jokes aside, his NHL career is nearing its end and it isn’t his fault. He’s a dedicated pro and he’s done everything asked of him or suggested to him to prolong his time in the NHL. If the surgeries fix his problems that’s fantastic, this is a contract year after all. If not, then there is no shame — he tried to make it work, it just didn’t.

He’s got character and was beloved in Calgary. If we’re going to have a stinker of a season I’d rather have it with no-fuss and good guys like Sean Monahan. Hoping for the best for him.

 

[Guy Larose]

It's a win-win situation. We get a player for free and get a 1st with him. If he turns it around and he's awesome, we win. If not, his contract expires and we can flip him at the deadline.

50+ point season incoming.

Everything my boy Kent touches turns to gold. Bow down to his superior intellect.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Slaf in the ahl

Dadonov - Suzuki - Caufield
Drouin - Dach - Anderson
Monahan - Dvorak - Gallagher
Pitlick/Hoffman - Evans - Armia
Byron, Pezzetta

 

[Le Tricolore]

Hope he's healthy and plays great and either a) gets us an awesome return, or b) signs with us for a super team friendly deal.

 

[BuildOnDiamonds]

I would have been highly hyped if you told me in 2019 we would get Dach and Monahan in the lineup.

 

[BLONG7]

You have to like how the tandem of HuGo are thinking..........another 1st incoming...........there was a time, where the GM couldn't get us a 1st or a Centre...... The misery.....

I have 0 expectation, the dude body is falling apart, a wrist and two hip surgeries in 4 years. Props to him if he manage to play most of the season.

are you talking about the team overall for points or Monahan specifically

 

[Balthazar]

His wrist injury completely changed his shot (which was his best weapon) and the last hip injury hurt his skating quite a lot. Now there's another hip surgery on top of that (on the other side).

There's just no realistic path for him to being good again.

 

[Nevins]

Dadonov-Suzuki-Caufeld
Drouin-Dvorak-Anderson
Dach-Monahan\Evans-Gally
Hoffman-Evans/Monahan-Armia
Pezetta-Pitlick-Byron( IR)

[Tyson]

I wish him the best in his recovery. Way too young to be done, reminds me of Nathan Horton whose career ended way too quickly.

Excuse my ignorance on the matter. What is the deal with Monahan? What were his injuries and what was the impact on his game. Prior to Covid he had a PPG season and was always hovering around those type of numbers. I always liked him, he was solid.

Any chance, given the decline and accounting for his injuries that he gets it back?

One wrist, two hips.

Unlikely, but not impossible.

 

[Schooner Guy]

I try to watch a lot of Flames games. Monahan really started falling off during the 2019-20 season but then after some time off had a solid playoff in the bubble. He then got off to a really good start in 2020-21 but his effectiveness fell off a cliff. Sutter tried to give him every opportunity when he took over as coach partway through that 20-21 season but Monahan just couldn't do anything and had hip surgery before the season ended. He was completely ineffective last year.

Monahan was never a strong skater but his mobility has really been hampered by his injuries in recent seasons. I just can't see him getting his mojo back as his body seems to be falling apart. Surprisingly he has been very good in the face-off dot despite the injuries. He might now be the Habs best face-off man. We all know face-offs have been an organizational weakness for many years.

I'm amazed that Molson has opened up the purse strings to take on salary for a pick that might not be ours until 2026.

 

[MD thaivuN]

would be hilarious if he can turn it around and play at a top 6 level. If he does that, he could definitely be flipped for really good value at the deadline.

 

[beowulf]

Interesting addition but makes me wonder where this leaves the other addition this summer, Dach.
