Confirmed Trade: [MTL/CGY] Sean Monahan and conditional 2024/25/26 1st round pick for future considerations

[Oddbob]

Like 5 or 6 teams do it every year at the deadline.

Does that make it good?

 

[Canuck Luck]

LOL and some Calgary fans just a month ago were saying teams should be paying them for Monahan

 

[Connor McConnor]

Bro wtf is Calgary doing LOL

What's taking so long to officially confirm and give details of the trade ?? Possible other habs trades getting officially entered into nhl ?

 

[Breakers]

If it is a 2023 1st rounder

Big Big congrats

 

[Extra Texture]

Wow. If Montreal comes away with anther '23 first, they're injecting speed into the veins of their rebuild.

From a Calgary perspective, expending the first essentially buys you Kadri. In that sense, its worth it. But considering Monahan has been spent for years, and was just about to come off the books naturally, its got to be a little bitter dumping him like this.

 

[Fig]

OMG!!!! Friedman confirmed???
After these notifications work productivity can go screw itself.

Best wishes to Monahan. I was hoping he'd make a major come back from his injuries here, but I guess that wasn't in the cards. Holy crap!

There’s now 15 teams left trying to move cap space, and the market has finally been set. Problem is, there’s only a few teams who can take on the salaries.

Imagine trying to move a contract with more than a year left on it? Likely why the Isles deal with Kadri went sideways.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Well looks like I will have some crow to eat on Monahan. We will see what the return is but I swore up and down that I didn't think the Flames would need to 'pay' to move him. Giving up a 1st to do so is really awful.

 

[Jared Dunn]

Look at the Habs board before and after the draft and tell me "Nobody" thought petry had high value. There were also trade proposals on this forum about trading petry to the Stars for their 17OA pick.

Never saw outright proposed tbh, most were thinking it would be a trade up from either the Calgary pick or their first second rounder

 

[MasterMatt25]

Is Dvorak heading the other way?

 

[Oddbob]

Like 5 or 6 teams do it every year at the deadline.

On second thought, which 5 or 6 teams give up a 1st every deadline to get rid of bad contracts?

 

[herzausstein]

Montreal gets a first and works hard to rehabilitate Monahans value and flips him with retention at the deadline for another midround pick. Pretty good deal on their end. So either price is ltir or they’ve got their own move coming

 

[DJJones]

Does that make it good?

Just the way she goes. If we have to rebuild in 5 years so be it. Natural cycle of things.

Monahan blows. Kadri >>>> Monahan. Huberdeau > Tkachuk.

All in all, they're doing pretty damn well for themselves.

Habs will have to move someone.

Something like Dvorak to Nashville.

And Brad Treliving jockeyed the situation masterfully to get out of the way of the bottleneck on his birthday. Dude's probably definitely getting sloshed tonight!

 

[Wackster]

Probably means Price is for sure LTIR which is a bummer but regardless, Habs have like 15 forwards who should be in the lineup, someone's gotta go

Efff that play with 15F all year and tank that shit

The only source claiming a first is some fantasy hockey guy I've never heard of. It is far from confirmed as the title indicates.

 

[The Burdened]

did not realize Monahan was so shit wew.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

What sense would that make? Calgary is trying to clear cap space.

 

[Xirik]

So basically Calgary has to do as good as last year or better in order for this trade not to come back and haunt them.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Crazy how his value has tanked
Good for MTL I guess

Player ruined by injuries. Sad.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

If it's a 1rst it'll end up being in the 15-20 range which is damn good for a guy Montreal can probably retain on and flip at the deadline.

Looking at it from Calgary's perspective there's not many teams that can take on cap right now so swapping Monahan and a 1rst for Kadri is a really good deal as well..

You would think that if you are getting a 1st just to take him on you would also realize he will have no value at the deadline. He just is not very good.

injuries destroyed him
