Monahan missed Thursday's practice due to an illness, but should be ready to play Friday against the Red Wings, Kristen Odland of Postmedia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan has been great on both ends of the ice recently, posting a goal, four assists, and a plus-7 rating in his last five games, four of which were on the road. He still gets plenty of time on the power play as well, so the Flames could be hard-pressed to replace the 22-year-old's production should he end up sitting Friday.
