Sean Monahan, like other players on the Calgary Flames, had quite a slow start. But he’s definitely picked up his game and 2017 has been kind to the young center-man.

For the start of the 2016-2017 season, life wasn’t kind to Sean Monahan. Or to the Calgary Flames in general. They had quite the horrible start and just after one month, people had already questioned if playoffs were an option or not.

A big reason for this? The Flames expensive forwards weren’t producing. And that includes Monahan.

However now in 2017 so far, Monahan has completely turned his game around. December was kind to him, but 2017 has been amazing to him. Let’s look at his numbers month by month to see how much confidence he has gained in the new year.
