Monahan delivered two assists in a 5-2 win over Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan has six points in his last six games (two goals, four assists; 19 shots); he put up points in five of those six. It was his first two-point game since Jan. 8. Monahan's leadership is helping the team climb the standings; they are just two points out of a wild-card spot.

Monahan scored a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

The tally tied the game at 2-2 early in the second period, as Monahan's toe-drag let enough traffic build up in front of Justus Annunen that he was able to pinball a shot home. Monahan has two shorties on the season, and they've come in the last two games as he begins to regain something close to his 2024-25 form. Over the last 12 contests, the veteran center has scored six of his 12 goals on the season.

Monahan scored a shorthanded goal on three shots in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan picked up his first point in three games since the Olympic break. The 31-year-old center hadn't scored a shorthanded goal since the 2023-24 campaign with the Canadiens, though he had three helpers on the penalty kill last year. Monahan has been limited to 11 goals, 28 points, 92 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 55 appearances this season, cutting his production in half compared to his 57-point effort over 54 outings a year ago.

Monahan didn't participate in Wednesday's practice due to an illness, per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Columbus' schedule doesn't resume until Feb. 26 versus Boston, so Monahan has plenty of time to recover before he's in danger of missing playing time. The 31-year-old has 10 goals and 27 points in 52 outings in 2025-26.

Monahan scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan has four goals and an assist over his last eight games, giving him a little momentum that he'll try to pick up after the Olympic break. The center is at 10 goals, 27 points, 87 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 52 appearances this season. He should continue to see top-six minutes and power-play time after the break.

Monahan (illness) participated in Monday's practice, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan should be available for Tuesday's matchup against New Jersey after leaving Saturday's 5-3 win over St. Louis. He has earned nine goals, 26 points, 80 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and 27 hits through 50 appearances this campaign.

Monahan (illness) left Saturday's game after two periods, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan logged an assist in the contest prior to his exit. The center is now at 26 points in 50 appearances. He'll have until Tuesday to move past the illness, as the Blue Jackets will visit the Devils that day for the first half of a back-to-back that ends Wednesday at home versus the Blackhawks.

Monahan scored a goal in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Monahan's tally answered the game-tying goal by Travis Konecny late in the third period. The 31-year-old Monahan has three goals on five shots over his last four contests. That's not a sustainable scoring pace, but it looks like the center may be finding his rhythm a bit. He's now at nine goals, 25 points, 77 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 48 appearances this season.

Monahan scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Saturday's 8-5 win over the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

This was Monahan's second goal in the last three games. The 31-year-old's move down to the second line has made it tougher for him to contribute regularly on offense. He's produced eight goals, 24 points, 76 shots on net, 27 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 47 appearances. He's on pace for closer to 40 points rather than matching the 19-goal, 57-point campaign he put up in just 54 outings in 2024-25.
